    @Final Thoughts on Competition. What you likely fail to realize is the official Facebook page of Baylor University posted a link to the online poll at 10:30 AM. It is the first time they have mentioned the voting. Baylor had a lead on Marquette at midnight, and saying "1 vote per minute" sounds like something an actual person would do. A hacker would do 2, 3, 5! Marquette caught up in the middle of the night and took a small lead. Then Baylor students and alumni started rallying. My news feed when I woke up said "____ and 20 other friends shared a link." Rather than attributing it to hacks--which are nearly impossible to do if you're using the Baylor University's Bearweb Network--keep in mind it's a popularity contest. I have a feeling "Waco Charlie" likely thought he voted 100 times, while 99 of those votes were met with "Your vote has already been counted."

  • Final thoughts on competition - 14 years ago

    This was a very interesting process of polling. The amount of hacks and use of hiding IP tools makes the reality of true votes by an individual in the competition nonexistent. In the early rounds the voting was overblown because of easy refresh and polldaddy hacks that auto voted. After the IP address one vote rule was established, then only those knowledgeable in 'hide my IP' or auto proxy switcher tools could run the votes, outside of the common hacker. Even in the final round both teams had this going throughout the night. Baylor had a consistent 1 vote per minute and Marquette 3, then early AM Baylor stepped up their process after falling behind by almost 1000 and made it to the finish first. Lesson to Marquette, change the process when the competition steps up or find more computers! As one poster admits below he did well over 100 votes. Hard to do unless you are using an IP switcher. From a technology perspective I found this fun to watch how easily these polls can be manipulated. Next time have polldaddy institute a manual phrase verification input line for the user to enter for each vote to keep the auto hacks out and make it more difficult for the IP switcher by having to enter more information. Anyway, congrats to Baylor on the win! and congrats to Marquette on a close competition. Both meals look like great late night meals after drinks. Cheers to all....

  • Hey Marquette Douchers! - 14 years ago

    You're school sucks and so does your "Real Chili"

    What kind of fat fuck eats chili on spagetti?

  • Baylor Girl - 14 years ago

    Excuse me, I meant *their favorite. My typing can't keep up with my brain.

  • Baylor Girl - 14 years ago

    I just can't believe how serious people are taking this thing. It's just a cute little poll for march madness. It's about who can get the most votes for there favorite heart-attack-on-a-plate (as most college food is). And most of the people voting have only tried one of the two options. Accusing people of cheating is just pathetic. Have any of you who did so considered that Baylor has roughly 3,000 more students than Marquette? And that we are Texans, therefore not only overly proud of our state but especially of our barbecue as well as our chili? And to the Baylor fans who are being disrespectful: shame on you, you have been taught better than that.

  • Josh - 14 years ago

    I closed the polls early because I was afraid Marquette would make a come back

    -Said no Gut Pak fan ever

  • Brian - 14 years ago

    Chili should have won. Closing the polls prior to 5:00 PM Eastern Time as was posted is all the time it needed to push it over the top.

  • Bob - 14 years ago

    I vote for Real Chili. 3:43 CDT. it shows poll closed already. Fishy.

  • Beth Schmidt - 14 years ago

    MU Real Chili is a landmark to the University as well as a staple. Pure MU all the way!! Go Warriors!!

  • Fat Daddy - 14 years ago

    Congrats to Julie, Billy and the crew!!!! I have been a fan of Viteks since starting at Baylor in 1973.... although the gut pack didn't come along until much later! Putting chili (with cocoa?) on spaghetti ???? Give me a Frito Pie on steroids anyday!

  • Get Real - 14 years ago

    5pm EST? What a joke

  • Bearmada - 14 years ago

    First to 15,000 wins? Gut Pak FTW!

  • MU2010 - 14 years ago

    I thought the polls were supposed to close at 5pm ET????

  • Fear The Gut - 14 years ago

    Polls are closed. Gut Pack Wins!!

  • Maggie - 14 years ago

    Go real chili!

  • Jody, Buffy and Sissy - 14 years ago

    Uncle Bill tucks his privates and prances around like a little girl in front of the mirror.

  • Johansen from Wisconsin - 14 years ago

    Did Bob Marley just call me a faggot and tell me to chill out? Dude, you need to take another rip and mellow out. I've tried both and have to say that the Gut Pak is better.

  • Uncle Bills - 14 years ago

    Very little meat in the Gut Pack, they weigh the tiny piece of sausage. And speaking of tiny sausages the guys that work there are grade A Dorks. They are just weird, and probably spend a lot of time playing video games and drinking Mountain Dew. vitek's actually has a tshirt that says, " you cannot beat our meat". These creepy guys making gut packs would know!

  • Not Texas Native but got here as fast as I could! - 14 years ago

    Gut Pak is the champ all the way. Think of frito pie with Texas twist...best thing to eat year-around, no argument there.

  • Bob marley - 14 years ago

    All you faggots need to chill out. It's beans and chilli and noodles. Who the fuck cares who has a better meal. Retards have nothing better to do than fight over a plate of food

    "There are no beans in Real Chili unless you ask for them. I agree with you though - only idiots put beans in chili. Or, for that matter, on top of a pile of freetos and pickles - ergo, the Vitek's "plate-o-crap". REAL CHILI RULES!!!))))"

    ??? There is NO chili in the gut pack. Only brisket...or pulled pork, which is a new option. Slow smoked meat beats slow stewed chili over a stovetop anyday. Besides in Texas chili is a cold weather dish so why would anyone want a bowl of steaming chili over spaghetti except for half the year? Gut packs are a year round indulgence. Go Gut Pack!!

  • Marquette's chili legitimately sucks - 14 years ago

    Sic em bears, gutpak all the way! Baylor/Waco has some damn good places to eat.

  • Sterling - 14 years ago

    Gut Pak all the way! If everyone on earth had a Gut Pak there would be world peace!

  • Sterling - 14 years ago

  • Patricia - 14 years ago

    When my husband (then boyfriend) was attending Marquette on a basketball scholarship, he was broke and poor. The owner sensed his situation and would give him an extra big bowl and then..at times would not even charge him. He never forgot his kindness back in the olden days, 1962.

    Best chili in the world and the best place to eat.

  • hashtagGUTPAK - 14 years ago

    PICKLE ARE OPTIONAL.

    ((((IN RESPONSE TO ScoJo MoJo -

  • B - 14 years ago

    What the heck is this freaking abomination? Chili over noodles? Shameful.

  • Tom - 14 years ago

    The gut Pak will literally pulse freedom and joy thru your veins. While the Marquette dish will likely turn you into a communist pig hell bent on destroying the free world. Only gut paks can save mankind. Also the chili dish isn't from Texas so it has a 100% chance of being disgusting.

  • Lillian - 14 years ago

    The Gutpak is amazing and so is basically everything at Viteks! The worst thing about leaving Waco is leaving the food!!!

  • Chris - 14 years ago

    I, personally, have never tried the Real Chili.

    I'm guessing that 99% of people who voted for the Real Chili have never tried the Gut Pak.

    Like virtually everyone else, I'm voting as a homer. I truly enjoy the Gut Pak - it's a delicious barbecue mashup featuring excellent brisket and sausage - and if I ever get the opportunity I would love to consume some Real Chili as well. It looks delicious.

  • BaylorBear - 14 years ago

    Gut Paks are pretty much the greatest thing ever...of life.

  • GutPacker - 14 years ago

    Irrefutable fact: Every person who ate “The Real Chili Marquette” prior to 1895 is DEAD today!

  • Diamond Dave - 14 years ago

    Real chili is a meal, not a condiment placed over spaghetti noodles. Smart people know you don't order chili north of the Red River.

  • jrm - 14 years ago

    The only people being rude and immature are the Marquette people? Yeah right! Like the wacko dude who said "GUT PACK will put hair on your chest While the "Other Shit" will put hair on you're puxxy."

    Nah, that's not rude and immature.

  • Ray - 14 years ago

    There are 2 great places to eat near Baylor, Vitek's, https://www.facebook.com/viteksbbq , and Cupp's Drive Inn, https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cupps-Drive-Inn/136683956364541. They are a block apart of Speight Avenue, about 3 to 4 blocks of campus.

  • MU2010 - 14 years ago

    Yes, after reading all the comments below, the only people being rude and immature are Marquette people..........and do remember that this is an internet message board, there are going to be people from all sides that act that way and those individuals in no way reflect the whole. For example, I can go ahead and form a negative opinion about Baylor based on 2 comments below, but that would just be silly. That said, the Gut Pak looks good, but GO REAL CHILI!

  • GED - 14 years ago

    I feel like the people defending Baylor didn't even go to Baylor. Am I right?

  • southwaco - 14 years ago

    GUT PACK will put hair on your chest While the "Other Shit" will put hair on you're puxxy

  • Voting for gut pak - 14 years ago

    Wow. People at Marquette seem to be rude and immature. You guys should be embarrassed. Guess what they say about southern hospitality is true, you can't beat it. I hope Baylor wins simply because of the comments on here. Sic 'em.

  • Ray - 14 years ago

    Chili from Wisconsin; you've got to be kidding! And, over spaghetti; gag a maggot!! That's like getting your salsa from Neeeew Yooooork City! There ain't no such thing. Chili is Texas borne and bred. Sorry, Marquette, you have lost me there.

  • Waco Charlie - 14 years ago

    I've voted for the Gut Pak at least a hundred times! Go Viteks!

  • Fear The Gut - 14 years ago

    Texas BBQ vs. Wisconsin chili over spaghetti? When I think about chili I certainly don't think of Wisconsin. Maybe beer cheese? But Texas BBQ over ANYTHING can't be beat. Go Gut Pack!!

  • Toucan Sam - 14 years ago

    You mean the best college restaurant in the nation might be at Baylor?? There's no way that should be allowed to happen. Real Chili blows anything Texas has to offer, much less Baylor!

  • Chicago Tom - 14 years ago

    I've got to go with Marquette's (and Milwaukee's) Real Chili even though the gut pack looks good. Real chili is the best drunk food I've ever had. 3 bowls was my jam. Just to show I'm a good sport, I'll crunch some Fritos over my next serving in honor of Baylors valiant effort.

    These comments are hilarious.
    I voted for the Gut Pak. I think it's good. That's my opinion, and that's all I have to say.
    Cheers

  • Shocked - 14 years ago

    I go to Marquette and am embarrassed that Real Chili is representing my school. I've had better chili at Wendy's. If anything Dog Haus or Marquette Gyros should be in it.

  • NIT CHAMPS - 14 years ago

    Real chili doesn't have spaghetti under it!!!!! Go with the awesomeness of the Gut Pak!! BAYLOR NATION IS RISING!!!!

  • Fish - 14 years ago

    Rudy's is better than Viteks, no gimmick real BBQ. Also Marquette is the school not the city and waco is not larger than Milwaukee

  • MarqKC - 14 years ago

    Gut Pak? BBQ? Is that how those are spelled? Shouldn't it be Gut Pack, and Barbecue? Then again, Vitek's probably knows it's audience at Baylor, the school with the one-syllable mascot. (A syllable is a . . . oh, never mind.)

    Vote for Real Chili!

  • Diana - 14 years ago

    The gut pack!!!! It's so gooooood!!! I love it!!!

  • NoNamedNobody - 14 years ago

    It is amazing how much people argue over an interweb poll. I voted for Real Chili as I have not had the Gut Pak, but knowing college towns it is probably cheap, tastes great and decent at absorbing alcohol. All this contest did was create a great list of places to eat when travelling. The other reason I voted for real chili is that it is the only food I have ever had an addiction to and will have when ever possible, in fact I may head that way this weekend. Remember everybody the interwebz are serious business.

  • Chris - 14 years ago

    Way to stay classy Marquette

  • Charles - 14 years ago

    Clean your colon.... Eat a gut Pak...NASTY. Just like the rest of you rednecks. Congrats on winning the national championship, your women's team sucks, your guys are gonna get their butts kicked... So they let you win some contest that nobody could give a shit about.....sic this bears

    Gut pak Is better than some Marquette chilli I haven't tried. Losers don't be sore losers. Also Baylor probably has more than double the population that Marquette has. So, Marquette step ur game up but quit winning. My cousin sent the link to her whole email list at 600 peeps. Probably half voted and then sent to there people. Marquette has already lost. Remember quit whining. It's just a game

  • Naaman Fletcher - 14 years ago

    The fact that all of you are willing to argue on a commetn board for a food bracket not only worries me for the future of America, but is a reality check for how far the human race has fallen. Neither plate is good for you, but i'm sure the "real Chili" is just as good a drunk/hangover food as the classic gut pak. If anyone believes that we are crowning a true "champion" of college food with this bracket, you sir are an idiot. This basically plays out as which unique college town food do respective student bodies rally behind. I must admit this is the kind of crap Baylor thrives at, and when we win I will be ecstatic, but for the love of Selena stop arguing on this comment wall, go back to your pathetic day to day activities just like I am about to. It's anonymous so you're not tough and you definitely aren't proving anything. shut up vote for one of the foods and shut off.

    -Pat Neff out

  • BEASTMODE!!! - 14 years ago

    Aww man TOM CREAN that was a great joke!!!! Wish I woulda thought if it first!!!! Unlike your joke the GUT PAK is one of a kind and cannot be duplicated although tried by many but failed!!

  • Denton - 14 years ago

    Gut Pak all the way!!

  • Ron Sonntag - 14 years ago

    The Baylor item appears to be much more a barbecue item or in the class of nachos, certainly not chili. The NCAA would probably disqualify it and maybe even fine it for misrepresentation!

  • ScoJo MoJo - 14 years ago

    There are no beans in Real Chili unless you ask for them. I agree with you though - only idiots put beans in chili. Or, for that matter, on top of a pile of freetos and pickles - ergo, the Vitek's "plate-o-crap".

    REAL CHILI RULES!!!

  • Tom Crean - 14 years ago

    Shouldn't Baylor be in the food NIT?

  • Just chill, Marquette... - 14 years ago

    Uh...So the Marquette folks think the Baylor folks are cheating?? REALLY? Seriously? No, c'mon, you're making this up, right? You're not? Wow.

    I've never been to Marquette. And I'd never eat spaghetti topped with chili. (and it's chili with BEANS at that - as someone else already noted, no chili worth the name has beans. Only idiots put beans in their chili.)

    Like I said, I've never been to Marquette. And from the looks of the comments, I won't ever, ever go. You people need to grow up, stop whining and get a life.

    GO VITEK'S!

  • bob - 14 years ago

    Wow, empty insults from ScoJo sure do hurt. I'm sure the athletes at Marquette are all Mensa members, even though that has nothing to do with a food competition. Not to mention that their food item is nothing more than a plate of spaghetti with chili (and a pile of cheese + sour cream) on top. A "dish" you could get anywhere in the country and is essentially a "pile-o-crap" on top of pasta. Even though it looks disgusting and just as unhealthy as all the other college food items in this competition, maybe I should try it before I start throwing around pointless, childish insults and accusations. Just a thought...

  • Lance - 14 years ago

    Kentucky's enrollment is 29000, and Marquette's is around 12000 give or take. That is why we voted Marquette. Just trying to help strategically.

  • ScoJo MoJo - 14 years ago

    "Jizz Face" --- seriously? This is the best comeback you could come up with? You evidence the mentaility of someone that might be drawn to a plate of freetos covered with beans and pickles, i.e., a 4th grader. Which, ironically, would make you the most educated athlete at Baylor.

  • mike - 14 years ago

    The Gut Pack is great. I"m eating one right now. Yumm!!! Go BU and Vitek's.

  • Fear The Gut - 14 years ago

    Real chili has no beans. Period

  • Also Not Scojo Mojo - 14 years ago

    Perhaps we just got more votes, because the Gut-Pak is actually really good. Don't knock it until you've tried it.

  • Not ScoJo Mojo - 14 years ago

    ScoJo Mojo? more like Jizz Face, amirite?

  • Fin - 14 years ago

    First off why would Baylor want Kentucky to loose? Pretty sure Marquette had better numbers than Kentucky, so we would want Kentucky to win. Second off, who would "cheat" to say that their food was better? Third off, GO FOR THE GUT PAK!!!

  • ScoJo Mojo - 14 years ago

    Dear morbidly obese computer nerd who is running an automated script to artificially jack up the voting numbers for Baylor’s “plate-o-crap”:

    Take a good look at that picture of crap from Vitek’s BBQ…mmmmm…random, fatty, unrelated chunks of blubberus flesh cast about in a haphazard way – and topped with pickles!! Mmmmm. Your bowels are already dancing just thinking about it, right? Now lick that Cheetos residue off your fingers, step away from the keyboard and limp your way on down to Vitek’s for a double-helping! And quit CHEATING!!

    Real Chili Rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Tolly Ho - 14 years ago

    The only reason Marquette won their semi-final is because a lot of Baylor people voted against Kentucky.

  • Hope - 14 years ago

    Cooper- the story was in our local newspaper which sends out an email daily with the headlines. I read the email every morning on my phone and that's how I found out, and I bet that thousands of other Wacoans did the same when we all received the email.... don't be a sore loser!

  • Hmmm - 14 years ago

    I wonder how many people have tried both

  • Not cooper - 14 years ago

    Cooper? More like Pooper. Amirite?

  • bu all day - 14 years ago

    Sic'em gut pak!!!

  • Cheating? - 14 years ago

    Don't be mad cooper!!! We are just that good and know how to work the social media networks down here.... Why would we wait til the last round to cheat against a team who loaded up 5000 thousands votes in 2 hours in the first round... Might want re evaluate your self by calling people out... Have a nice day bud!!!

  • Go Vitek's! - 14 years ago

    Or maybe the link was distributed to a website a lot of people frequent, and they all voted in a three minute time span. Maybe that's a possibility instead of "clearly cheating," don't you think? Plus, if they really were cheating, it would have gone up way more than 60 votes.

  • Cooper - 14 years ago

    The Baylor restaurant is clearly cheating. They gained like 60 votes in 5 seconds when I was here.

  • DAK - 14 years ago

    We Win, You Lose. 1 Gut Pak for Dak!

  • We are!!!! - 14 years ago

    BEASTMODE!!!!

  • Votes moving now - 14 years ago

    Ok. Now the votes are rolling for Marquette. Maybe because everyone is in the same company, but different locations.

  • Votes not being counted - 14 years ago

    Votes are not going through for Marquette. People are telling me that they have voted, but the count is only stays at 1. They are in different locations across the state as well. Please check on this.
