On today's episode, Jason gets the party started with a few quick thoughts on the latest College Football Playoff rankings. USC is currently sitting at #4, but all signs point to the Trojans jumping TCU at #3 if they end up beating Utah in the Pac-12 Championship game; their resume is just better than the Horned Frogs'. What's more, the possibility of presumptive Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams taking on the top-ranked Georgia Bulldogs in the championship game is juicy as heck. However, if USC wins and TCU loses in the Big 12 Championship game, would it make more sense for the committee to elevate Ohio State or Alabama? Definitely something to ponder. Later, US Soccer legend and Sirius XM radio host Eric Wynalda swings by to discuss why Christian Pulisic’s goal against Iran will go down as one of the epic moments in US Soccer history, how and why his comments about Gio Reyna’s availability went viral, why coach Gregg Berhalter’s system can be especially frustrating for forwards who like to score but has been great defensively thus far, the keys to victory for Team USA’s upcoming match against the Netherlands, why the World Cup bracket is set up pretty well for a deep run by the US, and much more!
