Thanks Jefe for starting this up! Really hoping for a Ghana pairing (though they terrify me).

This is mind boggling: 3 STDEV younger than the nations that qualified!
Which players could not legally celebrate with champagne if they had qualified while playing in the US? (I'm assuming the legal drinking age is 18 in CR)

If you can't wait another 24 hours for the draw and want to get overly excited or nervous...here's a simulator

https://draw.inker.one/#/wc/gs
Ran simulator twice, were put in Qatar group both times. Got Senegal in one, Iran the other, and the UEFA qualifier (Scotland/Ukraine or Wales) as the 4th both times.

So feeling pretty good about the draw today!

No way it happens but I did the fast draw and ended up with US in Group A along with Tunisia, Qatar and UEFA
I only did it once and got the same exact draw.

I've come around to wishing for a draw of Portugal or Spain out of Pot 1 so that we don't get screwed with two UEFA teams out of Pots 3 and 4.

Higher chance of getting African/CONMEBOL team out of Pot4 than UEFA.

Just redid my draw and got:
Portugal
Tunisia
Saudi Arabia

No way we get that draw either.
