That game we played with them today...I thought we were going to lose . I guess we got lucky. I can't predict winners for BMR, there are A LOT of really strong robots this year (and some nice looking rookie teams!)

As for who wins the Detroit district, I have no idea...

I think that 67 and 818 should team up . Come on first round pick 27 then second round pick us . PROFIT!

Detroit:

67, 51, 1023

Waiting for the other semi finals now.

Well I guess you guys were the strongest of them all. Congrats to you and your alliance on winning!

I just hope the robot performs the way it should and stays intact to be honest!

Good luck to everyone in North Carolina!

Thanks!
I think that 1086 with the right alliance partners will do very well. They have a great Midfield and Nearfield bot

Other great teams I think have a shot are 79, 337 and 900. It's going to be a fun regional. Good Luck to everyone there!

The 67, 51, 1023 alliance was devastating. That is all I can say. They truly tore through their competition.

Haha, I think this is a compliment, so thank you! Lol. But you guys gave us a very large challenge trying to keep you off of 67! So congrats to your team for all of your accomplishments!

Well I'm betting everyone else's plan going into GTR and WAT is to break up the undoubted powerhouse that is 1114+2056. Many teams have been trying to do just that for the last 3 years, unsuccessfully.

all these teams produce solid robots every year. and i dont think that this year will be an exception. i would dare to say that every one of these teams will be in elims, and at least three will be finalists

I would also throw in 3025 after their impressive showing last year at Palmetto. Also if you mention 2815, you are mentioning the twin 1398 too.
A lot of these teams had some rough outings in week one, so I'm sure they will step things up.

Troy District Regional.....

The number one alliance will have 469 on it... Its just who is number 1..
numerous #1's could be 33,217,573 or 910.

But if I had to choose now.. 217/469/1023 (Doubt 1023 will go that long this time)!

A good number two alliance to face them off 33/910/326

Truley a deep regional! But I subspect predicting week 5 for Michigan State Championship will be immposible.. Top 64 in one state with about 10 or 12 dominate robots!!! Please o'please can I get ten seeds!!!

469 could decline the #1 alliance, if they were carried. I imagine at least one time this year that will happen.

Yes this could very well happen... But that would probably begin a super alliance killer... Having the captians being the top seeds... Kinda like Great Lakes 2008...

I have a hunch that 254 will dominate once again at Vegas.

If I remember correctly, 3025 had a sail on their robot, correct? No offense to them, but the only thing that was impressive was that they managed to get a match schedule that got them to rank #1.

Neither 2815 nor 1398 got into the finals at Bayou, but I know that my team is making drastic changes to our robot, and I'd be foolish to expect them to sit around until Palmetto.

Well, I was 2/3 right, minus a deduction for picking 2/3 of the finalist alliance.
