Duffel Bag Bettor has another big day behind unlikely cover

Las Vegas

The infamous Duffel Bag Bettor had another big day in the books.

The Duffel Bag Bettor wagered "six figures" on Central Florida -21 at East Carolina (a win as UCF won 37-10), Covers' Patrick Everson reported Saturday on Twitter.

The UCF cover wasn't easy. Trailing just 23-10 in the fourth quarter, East Carolina drove 95 yards down to the UCF 2-yard line, but the ECU QB fumbled on a failed jump pass and it was picked up by linebacker Nate Evans, who returned it 94 yards for the score.

The Las Vegas bettor also won a three-team parlay (UCF, Iowa and Buffalo). He wasn't undefeated, though, as the Chargers (-6.6 favorites vs. the Titans) failed to cover Sunday in a four-team parlay with those same three college teams.

Just as impressive as his wins? He laid off Rutgers, the team he usually fades. Rutgers, a 20-point underdog, covered vs. Northwestern by losing 18-15.
