Geoff Burke / USA TODAY Sports

John Oliver, host of "Last Week Tonight," went on a mission to temper everybody's excitement about March Madness by expounding on some harsh realities that student-athletes face.

Oliver spewed his perspective in just over 20 minutes using examples of scandals involving players, coaches and schools.

He even presented an interesting idea for a new video game called "March Sadness 2015."

Warning, some of the language is NSFW.
