Barely got the episode in before midnight but the Thursday show is up. We take a look at some interesting AD situations, from LSU to Ole Miss, Colorado and Wazzu. What makes a good leader and what can make or break a good leader in college athletics.

We check in with Big Ten Enterprises while schools are checking out, or at least hitting "pause".

We must discuss the latest CFP rankings, not just because of the way the teams were ordered but for the philosophy of the committee offered through their media appearances.

Finally, we take a look at some pivotal and interesting games for the week 13 slate.
