Getting the draw in Mexico is huge. Hopefully when they come to the states we play them in a place like Seattle with a packed pro american crowd.

Qualifying wouldnt mean much in third place, we would end up with a very tough world cup draw most likely. We NEED to finish top of the hex and get a decent draw to work with and then get a knockout round win

Hasn't meant shite before. We always seem to win the group but Mexico always gets an easier draw. We should start rolling with some home games and easier road games outside maybe Costa Rica.

US definitely needs to play Mexico in Seattle.

I didn't think where you finished in the group had anything to do with where you are drawn. I thought that the only thing that really mattered were FIFA rankings.

Finishing third doesnt matter when it comes to what Group we end up in for WC. all Concacaf teams get put in the same pot unless one gets seeded (which is unlikely)

It doesn't matter where we finish in the Hex.

really, as long as we beat Jamaica and Panama at home, and dont lose to either on the road, we will probably qualify no worse than 3rd

Even that only matters for the eight seeded teams.
