Here’s the deal. If you enter the NCAA basketball tournament as a No. 5 seed, the committee is saying this about you: “You’re somewhere between the 17^th and 20^th best team in the country. The way we see it, you’re going to win one game in this deal and then you’re headed home.”

Well, hello Butler and hello Michigan State. This pair of No. 5s have now won four games each. They’re headed to the Final Four. Madness.

The only displeasure is that one of them will finally go home before the final, because they’re meeting each other next.

Of course, there are a thousand other reasons to call this tournament—regardless of the year—madness. A college football playoff could never see the collection of upsets that make up a basketball tournament, because football just doesn’t open itself up to “on any given night” like basketball does.
