Editor’s Note: A new FierceAndNerdy.com cross-post.

You’re probably thinking, “Wow, this site was suprisingly quiet during the first two rounds of the tournament.”

Yesterday, I looked at the North Carolina Tar Heels and their chances of attaining perfection during the 2008-2009 college basketball season.  Today let’s take a look at some of the other interesting tidbits we can glean from the AP preseason basketball poll as well as compare it to the USA Today Coaches poll.
