The Chick Fil A Bowl held an eating contest at Sal Grosso's Brazilian Steakhouse where members of the University of Virginia football team defeated players on Auburn University's team by an average of 9.03 pounds per player (1002 total) to 5.9 pounds per player (614 total) which is ironic considering that Chick Fil A's commercials featuring cows discourage viewers from eating beef.

    Those stats are even crazier than they appear. It says an “average of 9.03 lbs.” So some guys ate more than 9 lbs, and some ate a little less. If those are legit numbers, the University of Virginia has a serious team of Ce’ers.

    Virgina had a good season given their expectations, practice was likely supplemented with a nightly trip to a buffet.

    Actually I haven’t went anywhere. Just haven’t responded too much. I have been keeping an eye on the results that I see posted here though and it seems things are slow to change. I did miss one thing, why did Joey Chestnut miss out on Meatballs in florida? Was there a scheduling conflict? Just like most on here, I am just trying to become a better eater. Thanks for missing me though 🙂

    “I haven’t went anywhere”? That includes my class, I presume. Koby is just learning English and I bet he could see the error in that statement.
