The latest in local sports, most of which is true, the other of which may be a slight exaggeration of the truth.
--- Kansas beats Memphis in overtime, after which Clark Kellogg and sidekick Seth Davis say they predicted it, even though they didn't. This trend began the first day of the tournament when CBS' Dumb (Kellogg) and Dumber (Davis) predicted Kent State would beat UNLV. Then a few hours after the Golden Flashes in the Pan scored a grand total of 10 points in the first half, Dumb had the gumption (or something like that) to tell his audience he was perfect so far with his picks. Ditto for Dumber. Just before tip-off of Monday's championship game, Davis predicted a Memphis blowout. But that didn't prevent Dumb/Kellogg from saying afterward it was an exciting and close game, "just as we thought."
--- The Las Vegas 51s' winning streak has reached one. The Aliens beat Colorado Springs 5-4 Monday night to avoid the dubious distinction of setting a record for worst start in Las Vegas' Triple-A history.
--- UNLV football coach Mike Sanford has signed three more all-district honorable mention quarterbacks. He says having six QBs vying for the starting position in the fall "is a good problem to have." Nobody believes him, with the possible exception of the TV sports guys.
