Don't make any plans a month from now. If a friend asks to meet for dinner or a boss schedules an evening conference, tell them you can't make it.

You're already booked.

On March 13, you'll be sitting on the edge of your sofa watching a college basketball game between unranked schools such as Seton Hall and NC State in the NCAA tournament's first round. Odds are you won't know the name of a single player on either team. Still, you'll be clutching your bracket in one hand and a cold one in the other, and you'll be excited.

Excited for the start of March Madness.

Just four weeks remain until the first game tips off in Dayton, Ohio. In some ways, it feels as if hardly any time has passed since North Carolina and Michigan State opened the season in front of U.S. troops and President Obama on an aircraft carrier.

Three months of action -- from Christian Watford's buzzer-beating 3-pointer in Indiana's win over Kentucky, Syracuse's resiliency amid a sea of turmoil, Missouri's rise and Xavier's fall -- will give way to three weeks of pure, unadulterated madness.

And while the NCAA tournament is still far enough away for teams to work their way into or out of the mix, it's also close enough to give us an idea of what to expect once the 68-team bracket is revealed on Selection Sunday.

In that spirit, here are 68 responses to a variety of questions that will continue to loom large as the tournament approaches. The real answers, however, will come soon enough.

One month from now, to be exact.

Get ready.
