I'll put out my opinion: I agree with Billfred and Karthik that many teams are expected to do well year after year and the aforementioned regionals have some good lists of teams. I will also say that the larger regionals will also be a little tougher: there are more teams that you have to do better than to win, more teams that you have to pay attention to when scouting, and fewer rounds per team thus fewer chances to make-up for one or two poor performances. The regionals that have over 60 teams attending fall into this category.

Edit: Billfred: I'm holding you to the egg-cracking bit.

Agreed. I'd buy that for a dollar.
