It's been a long week at Baylor with the dismissal of head football coach Art Briles and President Ken Starr amid the Bears' rape scandal. While Baylor's No. 1 priority is now dealing with the situation off the field, how will this scandal impact the Bears on the field?

SI's Lindsay Schnell joins host Zac Ellis on the SI College Football Podcast to answer mailbag questions about the Baylor scandal and how it will impact the Bears in both the short and long runs. Does the Briles firing increase the heat on Tennessee to dispose of Butch Jones?

Ellis and Schnell also discuss the scandal at Ole Miss, who should be Michigan's Week 1 starting quarterback and who the favorites are in the SEC. And, is Chad the only one who actually makes any sense on The Bachelorette?
