CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) The Wisconsin Badgers captured the Duke's Mayo Bowl and the trophy that came along with it.
And then they broke it.
While dancing around to celebrate his team's 42-28 victory over Wake Forest on Wednesday, quarterback Graham Mertz dropped the football-shaped piece of Lenox crystal, leaving it shattered on the floor of the locker room after it fell off its base.
''We just wanted everybody to have a piece of that trophy,'' Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst joked.
That would seem appropriate.
Mertz accounted for three touchdowns and Wisconsin turned four second-half interceptions, all by different players, into 21 points to turn a close game into a near-rout of the Demon Deacons.
