USC sophomore Jeffrey Kang claimed his first college title last week at the Amer Ari Invitational in Hawaii, defeating Texas' Jordan Spieth in a playoff after the pair shot 11-under 205s. It was the second straight top-six finish for Kang, a 20-year-old from Fullerton, Calif., and the fifth top-six finish of his young college career.

Kang joins me on today's podcast to talk about the victory and about why this year's Trojans squad might actually be better than last year's Pac-10 champions.

Here is a look at Kang's record during the 2011-12 season:
