For some reason, I keep coming back to the 2006 season. No, not the 2007 season, and our glorious Orange Bowl run. 2006, an extremely quirky KU football campaign that got lost in the aftermath of the Orange Bowl and the 2009 meltdown. What does this current debacle of a football program have to do with a 6-6 campaign five years ago? Good question. It will all make sense… in a minute.

I feel like some of the latest "Inside KU Football" posts have been a little depressing (hey let's examine why we had so many punts blocked last year!), so today I am doing something a little different. I think it is time we lighten the mood and take a look back at some of the best KU football moments over the past decade.

My list gets a bit skewed for sentimental reasons here and there, and the order could certainly be switched up some. So kick back, relax, stop thinking about last year and the upcoming season and join me in a magical trip down memory lane. The top ten games and why they mattered. And here...... we........... go.........

College Football Buffet

Well, our Jayhawks didn't quite manage to pull of the upset. Tough second half and just seemed to run out of gas. 

Still plenty of good football today, especially for me.  I picked a ridiculously difficult 6 way parlay that has a chance to net me a $708 payout on a $10 bet.  Don't ask me who, because I won't tell you...that's bad luck. 

Iowa v Ohio State, the single endzone game, Stanford v Cal and The Corn v The Aggies.  Some good ones out there.

If you feel like watching some football, waiting for Ben Mclemore to commit or whatever, this is the place.

It's shaping up for an OU v OSU bedlam game with all the marbles at stake.  After that Nebraska takes aim at the ultimate sendoff for the farewell tour.

Do you think if they win the Big 12 this year they might want back in?  Especially with Texas now floating in the bottom of the cereal bowl.

Kansas v Nebraska specific game thread to come tonight.  Full list of games and where you can watch them after the jump.

As requested, here's a quick update on how several former Jayhawks are doing in the NFL/CFL.  One in particular is having a very solid season and helping his team to a somewhat surprising fast start.

Another wild week in the Big 12.  Iowa State nearly knocks off the Corn for a second year in a row, Tech beats the once mighty Mizzou in Lubbock, K-State owns Texas and Oklahoma falls to an A&M team that now looks completely different since the benching of preseason offensive player of the year Jerrod Johnson.

What's going on?  It's madness in November!  College football is shaping up to be as wild as college basketball anymore.  Perhaps that bodes well for the future of our Kansas Jayhawks as anymore it seems the gap between the top and the bottom has narrowed.

Just like last week we'll be listening to this one vie the radio or the web.  Because of that we'll once again have this thread serve as your all day smorgasbord of college football talk.  Jump in for the Jayhawks, jump in for the rest of the games and jump in for a BCS BUSTER Saturday where TCU and Utah both try to take a step toward the unthinkable.
