The top 3 “Jeopardy!” contestants to ever win big are going head-to-head (to head) on TV — and one guy who had a great run thinks he knows what sorta questions will be asked.
We spoke to Austin Rogers — who had a 12-game winning streak in 2017 — and he mused with us over what Alex Trebek and his crafty writers are gonna ask Ken Jennings, Brad Rutter and James Holzhauer come Jan. 7 for “Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time.”
The top three contestants in JEOPARDY! history will face off in an epic primetime special event: “JEOPARDY! The Greatest of All Time,” starting January 7 at 8|7c on ABC. #JeopardyGOAT pic.twitter.com/7PJUi57206

It’s exactly what it sounds like — these guys have amassed the most cash out of anyone on the show, and it’s time find out who’s the true king in a 3-way face-off. As for what’ll be asked — or answered, rather — Austin tells us the “Jeopardy!” crew will get diabolical.
Fact is, Austin says the writers know exactly how to tailor the topics for these three — and he believes they’ll be throwing pop culture curveballs instead of ancient history softballs.
Check it out — Austin even weighs in on who he thinks has an edge here among these titans of trivia, and it sounds like our boy, James, is in the driver’s seat with his scattered approach in hunting for Daily Doubles … and his go big or go home wagers.
Good luck, fellas!!!
