One official can really mess things up by forcing the others to try to figure out where they need to go to make sure the play gets covered.
I've also been on several where it has been great to have the 3rd....where there are plays that you know were covered better because of that extra angle you could defer to on some plays.

My experience is that you can do well with 2 people who have experience and a newer person, but that 1 strong official can't really compensate for 2.
I love it, though. 44th varsity game tonight and I've done all 44 3-person this year.
