Not to toot my own horn or anything but I feel like a lot of Michigan teams, Truck included, do very well but come up short when it comes to wins.

2415 was honestly my favorite pure shooter, floor pickup, 10-pt climber of any team.

I would have to say team 2826, they built an amazing robot, and still went to champs because they won the chairman's award

Thanks for the props. Though we had a good year we definitely feel we under performed at Champs. Could never get our comp bot to work as well as our practice bot, oh well just means we will be even hungrier and work even harder next year.

Back on topic, I feel that 624 and 67 are the best robots to not win this year. The numbers these teams put up were insane.

With Champs being over, I think that this unfortunate title can be handed to team 67, the GM mean machine from Milford Michigan. Given that this is 67's first year in who knows how many years (Possibly their existence) without a single win, being outed in Quarters, then THREE Finals in a row must hurt for them. To quote (probably more paraphrasing), this team is one where "Excellence is the standard. Victory is expected." They built one of the most feared robots in FIRST this year, as they do every year. Strikingly similar to the 1114 bot, their FCS, when in place, would rapidly fill up the third goal and almost never miss a shot. Once they've finally emptied the feeder station (Read: At the one minute mark), they would get their fill of colored discs and proceed to travel to the corner of the pyramid to begin their (literal) pyramid-jarring ascent for a solid 50 point end game.
I would have put money on them, if I were 21.
