March Madness, Explained
The phrase "March Madness" was first used by a coach to describe a state-wide high school basketball tournament in Illinois in the 1930s. In the early 1980s, sports announcer Brent Musberger borrowed the phrase during a men's NCAA championship game, and the name stuck.
March Madness is a single-elimination tournament. This means that if a team loses a game, they are out of the competition. Following this format, we will leave basketball for the professionals, and make it ALL ABOUT BOOKS!
