With all the talk at kusports.com about all-decade teams for basketball, I started wondering who would be on such a team for the football side of things.  Some were no-brainers, but a lot of positions were tough to narrow down.  I considered making a second-team, but at several spots I felt like I was really scraping the bottom of the barrel, so I stuck with just one.

The ground rules are simple: the field is limited to any player who saw time between the years of 2000 and 2010.  I've included stats for the positions where stats are attainable and/or relevant.  I'm sure some of these selections will generate some spirited discussion, but hey, that's all we have this time of year, isn't it?

Now, without further ado, the PenHawk All-Decade Jayhawk Football Team...
