Joe,

Do your research. Quarterback for the U is Brian J-O-H-N-S-O-N. Not Thompson. Wow! That was horrible.

Personally, I prefer the potatoes & gravy, stuffing, turkey & cranberry sauce fare. But maybe that's still available on Tuesday night.

I'd agree that Chuck-A-Rama has the best tasting buffet in Utah. And, maybe, just maybe, the meal there is more satisfying (perhaps even more nutritious) than what BYU food service offers on campus for its team. Among other things, this may be one thing that gives the Utah program an edge!?!

I'm not a football player. But, if I were, knowing they eat there once a week, might be enough incentive for me to go to the "U" than "BY-Zoo".

Anyway, I am a "U" alum, and bleed red. GO UTES!

I am glad to see that the guys are prepping for their future careers with a degree from the U. Maybe the talented ones will make it out of the dishroom to bussing tables.

What humor, what wit, Who are you Lenny Gomes? And coming from someone in such a classy city as "Philly". Famous for it's cream cheese and more abandoned buildings than occupied ones and a crime rate always increasing and expanding.

I can't wait to hear you cry all the way from Penn when the "Chuck-a-Rama" fed Utes spank the "Dinner Dog-Cougar Eat" fed cougar kittens.

I like Chuck-a-Rama and it was a nice article. But the QB name is Brian Johnson.

To JAB: I agree. That's why I call it "Up-Chuck-A-Rama!"

I like Barf-O-Rama for some things but Golden Corrall has all the steak you can eat.

From the picture it looks like Sakoda is getting his calories. Good for him. I have a feeling the Ute punter will need all the calories he can get to be ready for Saturday.

What a waste of time. If we have run out of good story ideas for the game, then just don't print articles like this. I'd rather see a blank page than drivel like this. I doubt most people care even a tiny bit about the Utes eating at Chuck-A-Rama on Asian night every Tuesday. No wonder newspapers are struggling to pay the bills.

Hopefully the Utes picked up a little Salmonella this Tuesday. Can you believe Brian Thompson...er I mean Johnson...is mentioned on FoxSports top 10 Heisman watch while Max Hall isn't? That's as big a joke as this story.

upchuck-a-rama? Then, Why does Whittingham hold his weekly coaches show @ the Famous Daves in Midvale/Cottonwood Heights?

Now, there is some good eats.

BTW; Devils Spit on the CornBread is phenomenal.

Does anyone care? | 9:53 a.m. Nov. 19, 2008
Good grief. Who cares. Tlk about overhype.
Maybe magic will happen and they will all get food poisoning. That might give BYU half a chance.

What do you expect them to report, the playbooks for both teams? This is the same sort of stuff that the papers write about during bowl weeks and Superbowl hype... This is like ratings weeks and they need to fill up as much of the paper with blue and red articles. That's Life!

BYU fan | 10:07 a.m. Nov. 19, 2008
I am a BYU fan and of course I want them to win, but in the long term, the best thing for BYU and the MWC would be to lose respectably to Utah and cheer them to a good Fiesta victory, something that would make TCU and BYU look like the rated teams that they are, and all three might even finish in the top 20 if they all win their bowl games. One or two more years like this and the MWC might just replace one of the has-been eastern conferences in the BCS and then the MWC champs would have a chance at being automatics to the ESPN College Playoff Series (ECPS).

Play well BYU, may the best team win!

No. Utah sees a major earthquake every 350 years. Last one? 350 years ago.
