This evening, we caught up with Lindsey Kay Abbott to talk to her about her 2009 NCAA Bracket.
Here is a glimpse of Lindsey's bracket:
Elite 8: Siena, Michigan St., Texas A&M, Memphis, Tennessee, Binghamton, North Carolina and Stephen F. Austin
Final Four: Siena, Memphis, Tennessee, North Carolina
Championship: Memphis vs. North Carolina
2009 National Champion: North Carolina (Final score 5-2)
Brad Young: So, Doodle, are you excited to participate in the NCAA Bracket Challenge this year?
--Lindsey Abbott: Yes, because it is fun. It was fun to pick North Carolina.
BY: Why was it fun to pick North Carolina?
--LKA: Because I like that place.
BY: So, I noticed you chose Siena to make it all the way to the final four. Why?
--LKA: I don't know. Because they cry.
BY: Crying makes you go to the Final Four? If that's the case Duke would be there every year.
--LKA:I don't know. He he.
BY: You've also got Tennessee going to the Final Four, what do you like about them?
--LKA: I chose them because it starts with the letter "T".
BY: You like the letter "T"? You think it's lucky?
--LKA: Yes.
BY: You have North Carolina winning it all. Are you excited to see the Tar Heels win a National Championship?
--LKA: Yes
BY: You think they're going beat Memphis, 5-2 -- that's a low scoring game. What made you choose that score?
--LKA: I don't know.
BY: The games star tomorrow. Are you going to be watching all of the games?
--LKA: I hope so!
BY: Do you have anything else you want to say?
--LKA: I hope I win and GO NORTH CAROLINA.
Alright, so there you have it. Lindsey has a serious Cinderella story in Siena and Tennessee. Something that not a lot of participants in this challenge have. So, yes, Lindsey's bracket is unorthodox, but it may be brilliance and we're just yet to see it. Let's see if she puts us all to shame!
Ha Ha, I just have to say that Lindsey picked some pretty great teams, not. I just read them to her and she told me the one she wanted. We did not even discuss rankings. She also picked American, cause "I love that Country", and whenever Washington played they won, because she "Loves that State, you know Mom, Washington DC!" The theroies of Lindsey Doodle.
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling a bit nervous...she may have her mom's luck this year. The "T" strategy is pretty cool(cuz it's an awesome letter), so I may go with that too?? :) Great interview Lyndsey! XOXO
ReplyDeleteI love it!! I think she'll go all the way :-)
