The madness is officially here — though any college hoops fan can tell you, it's been here all season long.
The wildest college basketball season in recent memory may be headed to an equally crazy NCAA Tournament, and Selection Sunday already sprung a surprise as the top seeds are announced.
Louisville is the No. 1 overall seed, a clear choice after winning the Big East Tournament, and will play the first-round winner of Liberty and North Carolina A&T in the Midwest. But Kansas is a surprise as the No. 1 seed in the South. The Jayhawks will face Western Kentucky.
Indiana is the No. 1 seed in the East and will face the winner of LIU-Brooklyn and James Madison in Dayton, Ohio.
Will this be the year a No. 1 seed falls to a No. 16? If the tournament is anything like the regular season, when the top team fell seven times, you can almost bet on it.
Four teams turned out to be what they thought they were: top seeds as they gear up for a run through the NCAA tournament they hope will end at the Final Four in Atlanta.
Who might this year's Butler or VCU be?
It's the question being asked across the country, as those $10 and $20-a-pop brackets start getting inked in at spring training sites, corporate board rooms and everywhere else across America. The tournament starts Tuesday with first-round games and gets into full swing Thursday and Friday, with 64 teams in action.
And the defending champion Kentucky Wildcats?
