Again, not sure if this really qualifies as news, but figured I would pass the fact that UConn received all 31 first-place votes in the preseason coaches poll.

The top three (UConn, Stanford and Ohio State) is the same in both polls while North Carolina and Duke are 5th and 6th respectively in both rankings. The No. 4 spot, however, is where there is a difference of opinion. The writers have Notre Dame in that spot while Baylor is No. 4 in the balloting of the coaches.

Here's a breakdown of how the Associated Press and USA Today/ESPN polls shook out.
