You shouldn't stress about filling out your office bracket this week, as one of the best things about March Madness is that previous knowledge of the sport is not necessarily correlated with success.
Why it matters: It probably doesn't! Nobody has ever filled out a perfect bracket and, as far as the NCAA can tell, only one person has ever even picked perfectly through the Sweet 16.
North Carolina schools have historically dominated in the men's NCAA basketball tournament, reaching the Final Four a combined 44 times.
Why it matters: A review of bracket history shows the longtime dominance of college basketball's "blue blood" programs — always useful knowledge when filling out your bracket — but there's always the potential for lesser-known schools to make a deep run.
