The Wisconsin Badgers trailed by eight points with 1:45 left on the clock, with a comeback topped off by a last second, with a miracle three-pointer at the hands of Zak Showalter.
Little did he know, he jinxed himself and his team by flashing the signature Aaron Rodgers Championship belt celebration to the Packers QB who happened to be in the crowd watching.

Just minutes later, the Gators hit a three of their own in overtime, ironically nearly identical to that of Showalter.
