San Antonio or bust. That’s the feeling many North Carolina fans are voicing as the start of the college basketball season draws closer and the Tar Heels begin the year targeting an April trip to the Final Four as their ultimate goal. The expectations from those voting in the AP poll couldn’t be higher for UNC. The Tar Heels received 29 of 72 first-place votes to claim the No. 1 ranking, which was released Friday.
