5 Games To Hold You Over Till LSU Football Is Back On

With LSU football not coming back for another week, here are a few college games and pro games to feed your football hungry brain.

Alabama vs. Oklahoma

The Orange Bowl should be one of the best bowl games to watch this year. Alabama and Oklahoma both possess two high powered offenses, but with a looming injury surrounding Tua, Alabama might not be at its best. If you're deciding on which team to root for... then are you really an LSU fan?

The Music City Bowl is shaping up to be a high tempo battle (pun intended). Expect Jarrett Stidham to (at least try to) be playing lights out because his 2018 season has left scouts and draft experts wondering if he's ready for the pros. I'd root for Purdue in this one because it's the college home of Louisiana's golden boy Drew Bress.

Georgia vs Texas

The sweet sugar bowl. This one's pretty simple, two good defenses and two good quarterbacks won't disappoint. Doesn't really matter who you root for here, LSU didn't play Texas this year and everyone knows what happened when Georgia came to Death Valley.

Saints vs. Panthers

I decided to add two NFL games to the end of the list if you're wanting something new to refresh your brain. As mentioned earlier, there's not a bigger saint in Louisiana than Drew Brees. If you're trying to get in the Louisiana spirit a little early, this would be a good game to have on.

Another Pro game to think about is this classic rivalry at noon. The factor that makes this game so intriguing is the playoff implications surrounding it. In addition, no games are more heated than division rivalries. When deciding to choose who to root for, I'd pick the Redskins. Why? They started Mark Sanchez for a game this year, what's not to love.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
