Going by the posted matchups (and not having actually seen the bracket yet), it looks like the bracket gods were watching over Batbusters 98 (a walk in the park to the semi-final of the winners bracket), Mizuno Pride, Cruisers, Choppers (Vannoy), and Corona Angels 98 and they should get to the final 8 of the winners bracket to get a berth based mainly on a lucky draw.

Bracket of death belongs to Breakers (Sieber), Strikeforce 98 and USA Athletics (Berouty).

Also looks like perhaps Rawlings and Punishers may square off to get to the final 8 in the winners bracket to then face Victory.

I can see some lower ranked teams, as well as a couple higher ranked teams, getting a berth to nationals due mainly to the good draw, and a few good ones having to fight through the losers bracket to get one due to a bad draw. Either way, there will be some lower ranked teams making it late into the winners bracket, only to get knocked down to the losers bracket and then promptly get knocked out by a better (higher ranked) team that has fought back through the losers bracket. In any event, there may be some less worthy teams earning berths to nationals.
