deceased. >> reporter: the wild fire growing to over 20,000 acres in just 36 hours. lower winds allowed firefighters and fleets of helicopters to pour resources on hot spots. you see this helicopter trying to put out that spot fire. it is flying incredibly low just about 30, 40 feet off the deck and being buffeted by the wind. they're trying to help out the hundreds of firefighters on the ground here in ventura county, california. embers are flying. weather conditions, however, expected to improve. at one point early on the fire, turbo charged by santa ana winds burning 2,000 acres an hour. >> trying to put out a blow torch with a squirt gun. >> reporter: reports of people trapped inundating police scanners. >> i'm up here with them trying to get them out, but it's heavily impacted by flames. we're going to have numerous fatalities if we don't have companies engaged. >> reporter: over 200 structures, mostly homes, destroyed or damaged.

re-election bid. the incoming da could have different views about the case. mola lenghi is in los angeles with more. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, michael. yeah, with the menendez brothers fate hanging in the balance this morning, it is unclear what l.a.'s new district attorney will do if given the opportunity with this infamous case. this morning uncertainty in the case of lyle and erik menendez. a new district attorney set to take over before their resentencing hearing next month. >> we are looking at two things. the facts and the law. >> reporter: the former federal prosecutor will be the next los angeles da unseating george gascon who has been recommending resentencing for the brothers. a step that could lead to their release. the brothers have spent 35 years in prison for the 1989 murder of their parents. their sentence two consecutive life terms without parole. the case growing more high profile in recent months. even actor rob lowe adding his two cents to the da race. >> we want a man who will

protect us and families. >> reporter: the incoming da said he'll thoroughly review the case. >> the same methodology that i would approach the menendez case is how i would approach all cases. >> reporter: there are three paths to freedom for the brothers. gascon's clemency letter to the governor, who could decide to commute their sentence or grant a pardon. a habeas corpus petition for a review of new evidence, including accusations they were abused by their father, not presented at their last trial. third, the possibility of resentencing. >> this is already before the judge. the only person who can make a determination is the judge. the da can strictly make a recommendation. >> hochman said he will thoroughly review the case if it lands on his desk after december 2nd. that's when he's expected to take office. at that point he could make his recommendation to the judge, rebecca. >> rebecca: all right, mola.

thank you. we turn to college football. lot of big matchups. none bigger than alabama taking on lsu. espn correspondent jess sims joins us live from the lsu campus with a preview of college game day. it's a big one ahead. good morning, jess. >> reporter: good morning, rebecca. so from happy valley penn state last week to death valley lsu this week, life happens fast on college game day. there's never a dull moment. as you mentioned, we are here to kick off an enormous matchup between number 11 alabama and number 15 lsu. starting tomorrow at 9 a.m. eastern on espn game day. the show is packed. we have two celebrity guest pickers. we have lsu gymnast libby dunn as well as major league super star rookie paul steams. right after our conversation today i get to go meet mike the 7th who you might think is a man but it is a live tiger. please say a prayer that will also be on the show. >> rebecca: all right. we look forward to that.

there are so many stakes here, such high stakes. both teams trying to keep their playoff dreams alive. >> reporter: yeah. so essentially this is an elimination game. both powerhouse programs are 6-2. so unfortunately it would seal their fate and allow them not to play in the official first ever 12 team college playoff. if they do win it keeps their hopes alive. a key to note though, rebecca, is that lsu is 13-0 in night games under brian kelly in the last three years. so that's just a testament to how electric tiger stadium is and really lives up to the mant mantra where opponents' dreams come to die. >> rebecca: what a great mantra to have at your school. [ laughter ] jess, there's also another huge matchup that comes right before this game. >> reporter: yes. right before this game the bull dogs are really hoping their quarterback carson beck can turn around his turnovers. he's had 12 in the last five games.

it is not ideal against any opponent but especially not against ole miss rebels. they are number one this season. they have 42 and counting. just 18 in the last two games. so the pressure is going to be literally and figuratively on carson beck in what is sure to be a back and forth thriller. don't forget the lineup is stacked tomorrow. we have 9 a.m. eastern college game day on espn followed by 12:30. we have georgia at ole miss 3:30 p.m. on abc and espn+. last but not least alabama at lsu7:30 p.m. eastern time abc and espn+. guys? >> rebecca: thank you. jess meets a life tiger somewhere in that lineup as well. >> george: coming up why the fda wants to remove an active ingredient in nasal decongestants. what it may mean for the medicine you have at home. >> rebecca: and help finding the perfect bra for you. >> michael: plus two stars of

>> george: we are back with our gma cover story, the fda proposal to remove an active

ingredient from nasal decongestant. erielle reshef is back with details. >> good morning. as we hit cold and flu season, you may be tempted to reach for a popular over the counter decongestant. the fda says not so fast. a panel of experts is proposing to remove an active ingredient in medications like sudafed, dayquil, tylenol cold and flu saying it doesn't work for solving that stuffy nose. the fda has said the other ingredients are not dangerous it's just ineffective and other ingredients can still help address aches, fever and cough. a better alternative for congestion could be nasal spray or drops. for now, this is just a proposed order so companies can continue to market and sell these products. the fda is inviting public comment. after that, researchers could issue a final order which would mean these medications can no longer contain this ingredient at all. in the mean time the bottom line here experts say you don't have to toss out that over the counter decongestant that may be

in your cabinet, but you may not want to buy any more of it. speak to your doctor if your congestion is not improving. guys? >> george: thanks, erielle. michael? >> michael: sam goes, wow. thank you, sam. another wow moment. now to the holiday beverage battle. move over pumpkin spice. stores have created new drinks for the season and they are ready to throw down for your dollars. morgan norwood has the story for us. >> look, the air is brisk. the christmas carrolls are in full rotation. we all need a little holiday joy in our cups. these seasonal offerings are everywhere with fans sprinting into stores. retai retailers dreaming. ♪ it's the most wonderful time of the year ♪ >> reporter: it's the holiday beverage battle for your bucks. starbucks revealing its seasonal lineup of sweet sips which, of course, including the classic pepper mint mocha and the iced sugar cookie latte.

what brings you in here today? >> feel that i have to be careful about how i move. >> lori: okay, laura. what did we fix? >> the most important thing is we went up in the cup. as you can see now all of the breast tissue is fully encapsulated into the cup. you have a beautiful lift. we didn't change your band size. another thing was adding seams. the shape that it can provide. >> lori: so seams are okay? >> seams are our friend. >> lori: as our bodies change with motherhood our bras will need to change, too. what kind of problems are you having with your bra? >> i just had a baby. i'm about seven months post partum. >> if the band is righting up the back it sounds like the band is too large. we want the band to always stay anchored on the body. if it's riding up the back we call it the see saw. we want this to be anchored on

the body. want half inch of inch to reseus tense. this is really important to know. the lift comes from the band not the straps. the band doing about 80%, 90% of the job. straps doing about 10%, 20% of the job. >> lori: like kathy from new york, many are confronting the reality of their breast shape changing as they get older requiring them to reconsider style and fit. kathy, what kind of problems are you having with your bras right now? >> i would just say uncertainty. >> one of the things that happens as we age we lose volume on the top of the our breast. it becomes more fuller on the bottom. sometimes it's hard to fill out a structured or contour cut. what i did for you i put you in bras that have an elastic cup right here. it really just sticks better against the body and provides a nice shape. >> lori: how do you feel? >> i feel great. i can open up my drawer and know whatever bra i pick out is going

to look good and feel good no matter what top i have on. >> lori: well, you look fabulous. >> rebecca: she really does. >> lori: all the ladies looked fabulous. they felt the fitting changed their entire approach to dressing and they felt confident. if you can get a professional fitting, our expert does virtual appointments. you should get one. if you aren't able, i have good news. we have a cheat sheet for you for you. these are some of the bras we talked about in the piece. i wanted to tell you what laura told us about them. this is a minimizer. if you have that problem where you do feel like there's spilling out of your cup, this one, the low price belies the high quality. it is just $24.99. we found it on amazon. super well reviewed. we would have never found it had our expert not shown us. what show loves about this is the comfortable under wire. it's wrapped in a plush cotton. lot of times there's a heaviness and people are uncomfortable. everyone said how comfortable

that was and how much support it gives. >> rebecca: some nice colors, too. >> lori: the sizing is 34c to 46ddd. this one size is 32b to 42g. this is a nursing bra. really great if you're in that post partum cocoon. you also want to go out of the house. those first early days you're home, it doesn't matter. couple weeks in you're like, i'm ready to emerge. you're also nursing. you need comfort, convenience. so what we loved about this one. this has a snap down closure that you can do with one hand. so if you're holding your baby with one hand, nurse with the other hand. lot of comfort. lot of convenience. what everybody else loved about it is that support that you're getting. made by a brand call miss anita. fantastic if you just had a baby. >> rebecca: you want to feel comfortable and be able to

emerge in the real world. >> lori: finally, if you are aging. and even if you're not, if you have a problem where there's that pendulum effect and you feel like you're losing volume from the top. laura, our expert recommended finding a bra that has this elastic on the top. this is from chantal. we got this from nordstrom that's going to help you with that volume. and the other great thing about this is because we got this at nordstrom. if you can get to a retail store there you can also get a free fitting there. as well. so lots of really great options for everybody to feel their best and look their best. thank you laura. we really appreciate it. >> and all of these bras are shoppable. you just scan the qr code on the screen or visit our website. good morning america dot com. coming up we have an exclusive first look at the new trailer for mufasa, the lion king and two of the movie stars joining us live. >> it's being called dancing's hottest season yet, and our ginger knows a little something
