4 Things to Look for at Tonight's National Championship Game
https://sportspicks247.com/2016-17-college-football-ncaaf-national-championship-odds/

Tonight's college football National Championship in Tampa features a rematch of last year's championship with the Crimson Tide of Alabama against the Clemson Tigers. While the game will feature the same teams as last year, there are certainly many interesting things to look out for while watching the game. Here are four of these things:

1. Nick Saban's Robotic Core

While coach Nick Saban of the Crimson Tide on the outside may seem like your run-of-the-mill grumpy football coach, he is, in fact, a robot. For those of you watching at home, you may be able to catch a glimpse of this on TV as Saban's robotic body begins to malfunction after Alabama players give him a Gatorade bath in the case of an Alabama victory.

2. Kirk Herbstreit's Longing to Star in "The Great Gatsby"

While many have seen the 2013 film "The Great Gatsby" starring Leonardo DiCaprio based on the 1925 novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald, only a few know about commentator Kirk Herbstreit's burning desire to play Jay Gatsby in the movie. Although his audition for the film was mediocre, colleagues of Herbstreit have said that he is still sour about Leo taking his role. Tonight, be on the lookout for Herbstreit's uncanny familiarity with 1920s culture and his tendency to call his fellow commentators "old sport."

3. That One Commercial That Was Funny at the Beginning of the Game, But is Now Really Annoying After Watching it for the 50th Time

It's probably a Progressive commercial or one of those weird car commercials with Matthew McConaughey.

4. Depletion of Earth's Gold

With the National Championship Trophy weighing 35 pounds made out of 24-karat gold, NCAA officials have gone to the ends of the Earth to exploit developing nations of their gold. Experts are predicting that the Earth will be drained of its gold by the end of halftime.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
