This list can be whatever you want to base it off of. For mine, I'm taking into consideration how good of a game it was, atmosphere, memorability etc..

Hard to cut it to just five, but here's mine:

1. KSU vs. KU '11: Beard goes for 38. Court storm. So awesome.
2. KSU vs. Baylor '11: Art's INT was probably the second loudest moment I've ever heard at BSFS. (<<I'm huge fan of talking about loudest moments.) That game was something else.
3. KSU vs. KU '10: Gameday was awesome. That game was even better. Still think that's the best game I've ever been to. Place was electric, even in section 6 with all the chairbacks was intense. Really sucked that we lost that one, but came away knowing we were a NC contender.
4. KSU vs. aTM '11: Was awesome to send those dorks out of the conference with a loss. Great comeback, I knew they were going to fold late.
5. KSU vs. KU '10: (football) Got kicked out. It was garbage. It was still a lot of fun to watch us destroy them behind the superb leader that was CCQ.

Last season's game against OSU in Stillwater almost makes the cut, and it would have if I had actually felt the earthquake. I've always wanted to experience and earthquake. Also, Duke in the Sprint Center (sorry dlew) was close to making the list, too. The starting lineup thing and the buildup to that game was huge. We would have probably been #1 if we had won that one.

Also, I've had really terrible luck with choosing road games to go to. Never seen us win a big game on the road. Except beating Doc in the last meeting in Lincoln. I guess that serves as some consolation for when I had to sit through Joe Ganz throwing for like 500 yards.

What's your 5?

I think if there was one game I could have gone to, it would have to be 59-55. I was a sucker for those Wooly teams.

Really, cas? No USC game?

Everything on my list is tied for #1.

1. 1998 Nebraska. Hugged Martin before the game was technically even over.
1. 2000 Nebraska. Snow angels.
1. 2003 Big XII championship game. Went with my dad and we got our tickets from some chode in Oklahoma off of ebay (lolwut), so our seats were very deep in the Sooner section. Got to airhump their dumb faces when they walked down the aisle to leave in the third quarter.
1. 2008 KU bball. Beasley and Walker facial all of ku's dumb gross weirdos and we storm the court.
1. bball vs. Gardner-Webb. We hit a last-second shot to take the game to OT and all 4,000 fans go moderately crazy.

See that's the other thing. At the time, I was really too young to have any sort of grasp of what was going on. If I was about 10 years older, I think my list would look a lot different.

Baylor 2011 football Arthur!
A&M 2011 football closure somewhat for me.
2010 UCF the death cloud and ccq scoring the game winner.
@KU 2011 taking over their student section in the third quarter was funny.
A&M 2009 it was the biggest WTF ever also we were leading the north
@ ISU and @Nubb 2011 basketball was really awesome

1) 2011 KU Basketball - The walkins going in against the #1 team sealed if for me. Jake's 38 was increds.
2) 98 Nubb football - I think I may of been too young to fully understand a lot of the weight of the game, but at the game you felt every bit of it
3) 08 KU basketball -Lifting the weight off was fantastic.
4) '00 Nubb football - Snow game was amazing
5) ?? Missouri basketball - Beating Norm by 50 was fun

Close: USC @ home, KU BBall '10, 95 KU football.

1. NU game in 00 – Snowed. Willie on Press box. Dad wouldn’t let me go onto the field. Cried.
2. 01 Cotton bowl v Tennessee – Stepped in ice-water puddle before the game. Cried. Taco Wallace post game planting a ‘Cats flag in the middle of the field.
3. KSU vs. aTm '11 – 4 OT. Had to pee. Glad I stayed.
4. V KU BB 08 – Loudest place I’ve ever been.
5. 02 USC football – What butt hurt losers.
