Re: Are 1114, 217, and 148 beatable?
Yes, they are beatable. 968, 233 and 60 proved that by beating them in raw score in two of their three matches. All it would have taken was a missed or bad call (which seem to be common the last couple of years) to have altered the outcome of any of those semi-final matches.
Joe Ross said something to me after 330 won the LA Regional this past year... "There's a lot of luck involved in any victory." He's 100% right. When you were picked, who is available when you're picking, the way certain calls go your way... These are some of the factors that YOU have no control over that can play a major part in a victory (in a match, a regional or a championship). Not to take anything away from 1114, 217 and 148... They had an amazing alliance. It says a lot when you can go into a divisional semi-final match, down a robot (and choosing not to take the alternate) and still get a victory.
