Redneck High

The headline above is a line from an old "Seinfeld" episode, and it's about taking a risk. That's the situation I'm looking at this weekend. I was much more selective in choosing the bets I made this weekend, but placed larger wagers on all of them. A good weekend would put me in nice shape going into the last few weeks of college football's regular season. A bad weekend…well, let's not think about that.

Here are the bets I've got:

11/10 ACTION

UTEP (+2) at UAB, $55/$50

11/11 ACTION

Purdue (+3) at Illinois, $55/$50

Baylor at Okla. St. (-15.5), $55/$50

Rice at Tulsa (-14), $55/$50

Texas Tech at Oklahoma (-9), $55/$50

Texas (-17) at Kansas St., $56.20/$50

Texas at Kansas St., Over 49, $110/$100

La. Tech at Hawaii, Over 75, $52.50/$50

That's most of my remaining budget at risk on those games. There's a little left, and I'll probably place it on one of two games — a first-half bet on Hawaii or Miami at Maryland — depending on the movement of the betting lines.

So there it is, all hanging out.
