Reasons Clemson will BEAT Carolina

Reasons Clemson will BEAT Carolina

Although Clemson football has not yet triumphed over the University of South Carolina in my three (almost four) years as a student, the following are reasons I am feeling really optimistic about this year’s odds:     

1. Deshaun will probably be back. Although I love Cole’s Hollister and Abercrombie style around campus, Deshaun is the real deal. He may have bones made of glass, but he’s in recovery and expected to return for the biggest game of the season.   

2. Clemson was just named a top 20 public university. Not that there’s anything wrong with attending a university that’s not even in the top 50 (yikes), I just have more confidence in players who are engaging in regular academically stimulating activities. 

 

  3.   >    

4. This year’s game is being held in Death Valley. Tiger fans are known for being die-hard fans who will stick with their team win or lose. This sets a great atmosphere for the Gamecocks to give into pressure and potentially suffer hearing loss as well.     

5. Spurrier has a big mouth. In a recent tweet from Columbia newscaster Michael Haney, Spurrier mentions, "We all know what happened to Louisville when their coach compared the crowd noise at the Carrier Dome to that of Death Valley ..."  

Only time will tell ...

LET'S GO TIGERS!!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
