Also, by my count, 20 of the 32 teams on Einstein this year have never been before. Is that a record?

A lot of new and familiar faces on the field, can’t wait to see what happens!
Glad to see a couple of MN teams on Einstein this year. Hopefully we’ll finally get a world champion this year too.
Such a lineup of California teams.
Did Jared’s prediction happen?
Let the 6672 streak begin 
edit: WE’LL GETTEM NEXT TIME LADS great run!!!
Definitely did not expect to see my alum team on Einstein when I got up this morning. They may be the underdogs, but I trust they’ll play some good matches.
Going to go out on a limb and be really bold with this prediction:
Hopper over Galileo in Einstein Finals
My prediction is hopper and Galileo in finals with Hopper winning
I think Hopper takes this one, 1323-4414 is just so strong. Galileo claws back through the lower bracket but won’t have the firepower to make it happen.
I’ve been watching my alum team (870) with bated breath. This is their first time on Einstein (although we got decently close back in 2019), and I’m very excited to see how they perform 
jank sheet i made in 5 min
make your predictions!
Favourite to win- Hopper
My runner up - Galileo
My “Dark horse” - Daly
Daly is gonna take it all for New York!
@TheBoulderite 100% of the teams in the finals in 1992 had never been to finals before 
870 was insane at LI, it’s really great to see a familiar team make it to Einstein. Congrats to everyone on team 870!
Let’s take bets on number of controversial calls.
Galileo and Hopper.
We will see after M2 which alliance takes the high road and which takes the low road.
Lukewarm take: at least 2 Einstein matches will be decided by penalties or broken robots.
Or red cards, but they are way more afraid of giving those out here, luckily.
That Hopper alliance goes crazy.
