Oregon beat Arizona on Saturday in a high-powered 48-28 shootout, but that wasn't even close to being the most interesting thing on the field.
Have you seen Oregon's knockoff turnover chain?

The latest sideline accessory is an obvious riff on Miami's now-famous chain, which is brought out every time the Hurricanes get a takeaway on defense. Oregon's was brought out on two occasions on Saturday, thanks to two Khalil Tate interceptions. While the turnovers were impressive, the chain itself ... well, you be the judge.

One of these is clearly better than the other, and it's not the knockoff. Best to just try again next year, Oregon.
