This past week marked the start of the 2016 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, and boy, has it brought ALL the feels with it. Here are just a few of the emotions that truly put the "madness" in March Madness.

1. The scramble to set up the perfect bracket (and 30 more for backup)

2. The feeling when the first upset destroys all of your brackets

3. When it's your favorite team that destroys everyone's brackets except yours

4. When the guy who hasn't watched 30 seconds of a game is suddenly the most knowledgeable, critical sports analyst.

5. When people start quizzing you on random stats to see if you're a "true" fan. Chill, you don't see me asking you for your favorite band's lead singer's mother's favorite color.

6. Trying to convince your coworker to switch shifts with you so you can watch a game like

7. Having to work/sit in class and get updates of a game from your phone like

8. When your favorite team advances to the next round

9. When your favorite team gets knocked out

10. Trying to calculate how much it would be to go to Houston for the Final Four

11. Realizing you can't afford to go to Houston

12. When that one friend who's a little too into a game gets upset because his/her team lost

13. That moment when you realize you've probably indulged too much during all the watch parties

14. Trying to back up your bracketologist cred by constantly reminding people of the upsets you picked correctly (when really it was your dog)

15. The emptiness the occurs after the Championship game because you have to go back to normal life

Here's to a month of crazy awesome basketball!
