Paul Chryst isn’t exactly known for his outward displays of emotion, but he did something of note towards the end of the Orange Bowl on Saturday night.
As his Wisconsin Badgers were closing out their win over the Miami Hurricanes, Chryst appeared to shade the “Turnover Chain” with some choice words he muttered to himself.

It sure looked like he said, “Turnover Chain my f—– a–.”
Not only did Chryst throw some shade at the chain, but Wisconsin was also seen mocking it after scoring a touchdown in the second quarter.

Such is the duality of the Turnover Chain. It becomes something for players and fans to rally around, but it also fuels opponents’ desire to beat you.
Ultimately, it was turnovers by Miami that did in the Hurricanes. Quarterback Malik Rosier threw three interceptions compared to just one touchdown.
