My Superbowl Prediction For 2017
Dak Prescott

As you can tell by the headline you already have an idea what this article is going to about but hear me out before you call me crazy.

In my perfect world the Steelers would win the Superbowl, however I just don't think it is going to happen. They're too inconsistent for me. However, against my better judgement, I think Dallas is going to win it all. They'll square up against New England and they'll pull out the W with Ezekiel Elliott being the MVP.

Some might think I'm insane predicting a team being led by two rookies is going to win the Superbowl. People say that Dak Prescott is going to choke under the pressure or Zeke is gonna peak (no rhyme intended). Zeke has been averaging 5.1 yards per carry and Dak has thrown for 23 touchdowns and only four interceptions. The two have been putting up numbers well above the norm for rookies and show no signs of stopping.

Tom Brady and his Patriots are no doubt the biggest threat in the AFC, or even the whole NFL. The two teams haven't faced off yet this year so there isn't really anything to base this prediction off of except for the stats of the two teams. Brady has 28 TD's, and only two interceptions, but remember, Brady was suspended for the first four games of the season.

Let me know your predictions for who you think will be in the Superbowl! I'd love to hear them!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
