george? >> terry moran, thanks. robin?o the efforts from the federal reserve to combat inflation. rebecca jarvis is here with how it could impact your mortgage and more. good morning, rebecca. >> reporter: good morning, robin. the issue here is that prices are surnl surging on everything from rent to groceries to gas. the fed can address it by hiking interest rates, something they are expected to do three types next year likely starting in the spring. their goal is to slow down spending by making borrowing more expensive. in real terms for you what this means is that everything from a new mortgage to a car loan to a credit card will cost you more. it's also going to make it more desirable for you to stash money in a bank savings account. the fed does not expect this to bring down prices overnight. instead they are forecasting prices will stay elevated well into next year, robin. >> thanks so much, rebecca. michael? >>> now to the top high school football player in the country stunning the college football world on national
