Broncos RB White has Achilles surgery

Football Betting Lines

09/07/2010 - Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Denver Broncos running back LenDale White underwent surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon.

The Denver Post reported Tuesday that White had the procedure done as the Steadman-Hawkins Clinic in Colorado's capital. The paper quoted White's uncle as saying the surgery went well.

White was placed on injured reserve last Friday after sustaining the season- ending setback.

White was hurt during the second quarter of Thursday's 31-24 preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He ran for 53 yards and two scores during exhibition play.

The Denver native was already scheduled to sit out the first four games of the regular season for violating the league's substance-abuse policy.

White was signed by the Broncos on August 4 after he was cut by Seattle in late May. The Seahawks had acquired him from Tennessee this April.

A 2006 second-round draft pick of the Titans, White has rushed for 2,349 yards and 24 touchdowns on 628 carries in 58 career games. He also has caught 42 passes for 204 yards.

Big 12 Conference betting odds

Work left to do: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Kansas State

Texas joins Texas A&M and Kansas as locks after getting league win No. 11. Texas Tech greatly helped its own hopes and crippled OK State's with the two-point win Saturday. Is K-State the last reasonable hopeful? Could be an elimination match in Stillwater on Tuesday, at least for the Cowboys.

Work left to do:

Texas Tech [18-11 (7-7), RPI: 44, SOS: 12] A critical two-point win over OK State leaves the Red Raiders with Baylor and at Iowa State left. Get both and the Red Raiders likely are good to go. Get one and there could be some interesting comparisons with a K-State team that could finish two or three games "ahead" of them in the standings but doesn't have any of the quality wins Texas Tech has. Not a lot in nonconference play (against Arkansas in Little Rock being the best win, by far) to lean on.

Oklahoma State [18-9 (5-8), RPI: 50, SOS: 35] Still without a road win, the Cowboys now need to win two on the road just to get to .500 in conference play. It's hard to recall a team (OK, other than Clemson) falling so precipitously from lock status to almost certainly out of the NCAAs at this point. There are wins to be had in the last three, including a very big home game against K-State on Tuesday, but this team is reeling. Can you tell the pressure to win is getting to them with the way the final possession played out at Texas Tech? There are some good nonconference performances to lean on, specifically beating Missouri State and Syracuse on neutral floors and Pitt in OK City, but if the Pokes don't right this very, very soon, that won't be enough.

Kansas State [20-9 (9-5), RPI: 56, SOS: 96] It pays to be in the Big 12 North. The nine league wins are Colorado (twice), Missouri (twice), Iowa State (twice), Baylor, Nebraska and (a good one against) Texas. That helps explain the middling computer profile. The win over USC is nice, but the nonconference leaves a lot to be desired. The game at OK State in Stillwater on Tuesday is huge, as it could KO the Cowboys and leave K-State with a home date against Oklahoma with which to work.
