I'm nervous. It's palpable. I've always wanted to give off this air of cool invulnerability, but the truth is that inside I am a weak, sad little man who is probably going to suffer a nervous breakdown thinking about potential secondary matchups with Amari Cooper.

Losing Tom Herman doesn't help, and thank you baby Jesus that Matt Finkes is here to talk us (me) down from the ledge. We're gonna be alright, everybody! Probably! In any event, Michigan has no idea what they're doing and honestly no matter what our problems are, with the Wolverines being bad and ridiculous it's always been at least a push for the past decade-ish.

And guess what! Basketball is still going on! Is Ohio State really that good? Is Michigan really that bad? Is Wisconsin the most perfectly boring team in the history of college basketball? All these questions and more are answered by all-around basketball metrics expert Ken Pomeroy, who excels in explaining difficult concepts in ways that even big dummies like you or I can understand.

All this and Ask Us Anything! Which you can do by hitting us up via e-mail at dubcast@elevenwarriors.com or on Twitter at the official Dubcast account.

Here's how it all broke down:

0:10- Tom Herman, how to recover from a B1G championship high (solution: watch it again)

18:43- Ask Us Anything! NES games ahoy!

28:33- Finkes on Football, where Matt breaks down exactly what MIchigan needs to do to not suck anymore. This advice will almost certainly be ignored.

43:50- The mythical Kenpom stops by to pull back the veil that has obscured true understanding of the machinations that pull the strings of college basketball

58:13- I'm so sorry, Buckeye Doughnuts

And that's it! Next week both Christmas and football fever will reach heights never before seen as both Michael and I are quarantined by the CDC due to our extreme contagiousness.
