Navy is one of the pleasant surprises of the college football season. For that matter, so is Army, its fellow service academy.
The Midshipmen are 5-0 straight up (SU) and 4-1 against the spread (ATS), while the Black Knights are perfect on both counts at 5-0 SU and ATS.
But for our purposes, let’s focus on Navy.
Why? Because this past weekend, the largest reported bet — on either college football Week 6 odds or NFL Week 5 odds — landed on the Midshipmen.
More on that major wager and other notable parlay winners/big bets from college football Week 6 and NFL Week 5 betting.
Anchors Aweigh!
Navy opened as a 9-point road favorite against Air Force. By the time kickoff rolled around Saturday, the Midshipmen were up to -10.5.
But one high roller got the best of the number, putting a whopping $215,000 on Navy -9. The number ended up not mattering at all, as Navy drilled Air Force 34-7 to easily win and cover.
So the customer banked a profit of $195,650 (total payout $410,650).
That’s pretty good ROI for a few days’ wait.
Parlay Partay
How about a seven-leg same-game parlay for a nominal $40, that cashes out for $9,600 in profit? That’s what one DraftKings Sportsbook customer put together in Sunday’s Bears-Panthers game.
All seven legs hit relatively easily. The only semi-close components: Panthers QB Andy Dalton didn’t throw an interception until four minutes into the third quarter, and Cole Kmet had 57 receiving yards, just a few above the necessary 50.
At Caesars Sports, a bettor put $64 on a nine-leg parlay of player props for Thursday’s Buccaneers-Falcons game:
