If Syracuse Loses Tomorrow, Blame Chipotle

Chipotle's Barbacoa Burrito (with shredded beef, pinto beans, rice, cheese, guacamole, sour cream, and salsa) hits nearly 1,300 calories and three-quarters of a day's worth of saturated fat. That's the equivalent of a Quarter Pounder, a large order of fries, and a large Coke.

There's nothing wrong with eating that if you've, you know, just burned 8,000 calories running a marathon. If you're preparing for play in a grueling basketball game, hopefully followed 24 hours later by another and, God willing, followed 24 hours later by another...it's probably not the best option for keeping energy high.

Can someone please tell the SU basketball team this?

Here's a message from Scoop yesterday:

Chipotle with andy, brandon reese and gmac.. This my 1st eating a chipotle lmao

And now today from Kris Joseph:

In the room with @deeriley33 watchin this Gtown game then we gonna get something to eat from Chipotle

These guys better be running wind sprints at 3 a.m. So help me if they come out sluggish tomorrow...I'm going straight to my neighborhood Chipotle and taking a pick axe to it. After my Burrito Bol and Diet Coke, of course.

Update: They definitely went back for more burritos. Oh and...WE ARE DOOMED. Chiptole is coming to Syracuse.

You should take the pick axe anyways....

People in new york don’t understand how bad they are getting ripped off, chipolte here in utah is like the 5th best option for that type of cuisine. If they had a place like Cafe Rio, then there would be no need to worry, maybe in a couple of years they’ll have branched out to NYC, but in the meantime, everyone should avoid that place, but on the flip side, we know how much andy is a health freak now, so if he’s there, then i have faith the team will be alright.

Wow

Who knew that Utah was such a hotbed of Mexican fast-food options? I’ll have to go to Utah!

Chipotle is the preferred post-golf dining experience amongst my friends, actually, here in NJ.

Lol

Well considering how many border hoppers make their way to this state, its a natural fit. Chipolte is not bad, if you’ve never had better, so i’m spoiled hence my hostile stance for chipolte lol

Just in case the team is reading this

I assume Andy has this all memorized already.

Wow, I totally consume more than 1400 calories when I go to Chipotle

and I don’t even add meat. That’s mildly alarming.

The good news is, these dudes run a lot?

Other people look, Andy Rautins can SEE.

Then he knows chipotle can be done sensibly

A 12" tortilla wrap with rice, black beans, chicken, red salsa, and lettuce will net you 50g of protein against 21g of fat. If you want to indulge with some cheese, you’re still looking at a resonable 58:29g ratio. The devil of course is in the sodium.
