Re: Who's the best team not in Atlanta in 2008?

I'll go ahead and put my two cents in: 342. They were outgunned in Florida against 233 and 1251 both at the peak of their game, and it was tremendously bad luck in the Palmetto finals (stripping a power distribution block and losing 343 in the early seconds of Finals 4--yes, 4) that kept them from getting their ticket to Atlanta.

You don't become finalist at both Florida and Palmetto without doing something right.
