According to For the Win by USA Today the Alabama-LSU game is more than just a college football game. On election years, since 1984, the winner of the game predicts the outcome of the presidential election. If LSU wins, then a Republican will be in the White House and if Alabama wins, then a Democrat will be President.

1984: LSU 16 - Alabama 14, Ronald Reagan (R)

1988: LSU 19 - Alabama 18, George H.W. Bush (R)

1992: Alabama 31 - LSU 11, Bill Clinton (D)

1996: Alabama 26 - LSU 0, Bill Clinton (D)

2000: LSU 30 - Alabama 28, George W. Bush (R)

2004: LSU 26 - Alabama 10, George W. Bush (R)

2008: Alabama 27 - LSU 21, Barack Obama (D)

2012: Alabama 21 - LSU 17, Barack Obama (D)

This trend is very interesting because Alabama has gone red in every single election the game has decided even the years that Democrats won. LSU has also gone red every year except for 1992 and 1996. This year Alabama won, 10-0, over LSU. So, will Hillary Clinton win the presidency? Or will Donald Trump win, throwing off the 32-year trend? Go out and vote and we shall see.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
