The post from GAF that clears it all up for me. Since most Americans do not understand the world cup and soccer.

do you guys know how football works? you are basically through the group stage. Portugal needs a miracle to get through, and you won against Ghana so you have advantage there even if you lose and ghana wins
basically the only way the USA doesnt go through is if Portugal wins by 5 goal difference and/or USA loses by like 5 goals... and neither is going to happen looking at how both teams have been playing so far (USA stronger than expected, Portugal a fucking embarassment)
USA doing nicely, you should be happy / proud

USA still has a pretty big chance of being left out. If USA loses for a difference of more than 2 goals, or Ghana wins for a difference of more than 2 goals, USA is out. And based on Portugal performance this WC, Ghana can very well beat Portugal with more than 2 goals, and Germany is an extremely strong opponent, so losing to them can very well happen.

I am not one to speculate so far. From what I have seen the odds are in the US's favor. Many claim the US and GErmany will purposely tie. So I am saying nothing more than the odds are most strongly in the US's favor against Port. and Ghana.
