As many basketball fans know, the NCAA tournament, also known as March Madness, goes into April as the Final Four and championship game aren't played in March.
That being said, the last weekend of the tournament in March gave fans a reminder why it's called 'March Madness.'
The final seconds of #UNC vs. #Kentucky are why it's called #MarchMadness

The fantastic finish was everything fans love about the tournament, and Luke Maye's clutch shot sent UNC back to the Final Four for the second consecutive year.

Last year a buzzer beater took the title away from UNC. This year a buzzer beater sends them back to try again
