I've done some research on the internet and there are a ton of suction cups out there, (even rectange shaped). It should be really interesting what teams use this year and how they use them.

Our robot can do that, we push the cups down and then bulld them down to have all four wheels contact to create more resistance. The pneumatic is so strong that is pulls the HDPE towards the robot!! Maybe thats because our mock ups bad, but that could be a problem with people who use 2 huge vaccum cups.
I think suction cups will prove to be a determing factor this year.
