I reset my BIOS to default while troubleshooting a separate issue. I feel as if I set it back up appropriately, but now I have no internet access or even internal access to the GUI. I have both 10G ports on the MB bonded and they both show connected in BIOS. Luckily, I do have access via IPMI which I've tried swapping ethernet cables to rule that out and it works just fine. Please help.. thanks in advance

Your PCIe bus enumeration changed and with it the names of your NICs. See your output of "ip a" and compare it with your /etc/network/interfaces. Your both NICs enp205... Are now enp209... . So you have to edit your interfaces file to match this.

Also check your VM configs in case you used PCI passthrough anywhere to not crash your server when autostarting VMs and then passing through the wrong devices.

My HERO!!!! Thank you so much!

Just for my knowledge, were the change in ID's a result of resetting BIOS to default?

Yes, probably some different BIOS settings like disabling some onboard PCIe devices or similar. Once you add or remove PCIe devices you need to fix your network config.
