Notre Dame held off an upset attempt by Ivy upstart Princeton. Gonzaga struggled early against 16-seed South Dakota State. Northwestern is preparing for its first-ever tournament game. The madness has begun, which means The Glimm is in full swing.

And we have a record year: 263 total entries. That field includes Q-BALL and Q-Ball. We’ve got expert brackets (A Very Good Bracket, Noreen’s Awesome Picks, Uma WON) and confused brackets (Is This Football?). There’s Big, Big Puddin and bigmama.

Two games in, and 133 of you are undefeated. And one Glimmer lost a Final Four team (Eli Rosenberg, Princeton).

There’s no clear favorite in the tourney field: Villanova, Gonzaga, North Carolina and Duke were all picked to win it all by at least 30 Glimmers.

So enjoy the next three weeks. As always, theglimm.com is your home for all things Glimm – you can see your brackets and others, and check out the latest standings. Enjoy!
