Here is everything (really!) you might want to know about March Madness — one of the biggest, most exciting and fun events in sports.

The tip-off time for the sport’s marquee game has long been a point of contention for college basketball diehards, particularly those who live in the eastern time zone and typically have to stay up past 11:30 p.
