The way I see it is this:
Goals Horizontal:

-Bonus of getting two big balls on the sides with the option of getting some black balls inside the horizontal goal.
-Can't drive across bridge with a horizontal goal

Goals Vertical:
-Bonus of carrying more black balls.
-One big ball per goal
-Easier to handle bridge-wise.

Any other advantages or disadvantages to either? Right now our team is leaning toward vertical.
