That analogy is flawed. It would correctly be:

For the last 2 minutes of the game, the players play only touch football. They can do it, and if they werent in little leage middle school football, then they are at a disadvantage.

Any FRC team can put together n FTC robot, it might be harder if they arent used to it, but thats part of the fun and the challenge.
