Ah, March Madness.

That magical time of year where fans who couldn’t find Creighton or Valparaiso on a map cram their still-perfect brackets down your throat. The only thing more frustrating than everyone flooding your Facebook feeds with their picks is the inevitable moment when your girlfriend sweeps the Midwest region by picking her favorite colors.

Facebook has broken into the Madness with a series of maps carving up the nation by fandom. We showed you something similar during football season, but this one is grounded in empirical data. Loyalties are painted across the country in “likes,” and social-media giant analyzes the bracket at the conference, regional and rivalry levels.

Thanks to their increasing presence as a national brand, Oregon has arguably the widest appeal after Duke. That’s fair, considering the Blue Devils’ perennial excellence and massive fan base. It’s cool to note the Creighton fans in Oregon — head coach Dana Altman is Creighton’s all-time winningest head coach with 327 wins for the Bluejays.
