Suh Could Be On One NCAA 11 Cover

It has been rumored (to no one’s surprise) that Tim Tebow will be on the cover of NCAA Football 11. What has remained uncertain is whether Tebow would be the universal cover athlete or if he would just be on a single version with different players appearing on the others. The last two years have had a different cover athlete represent the 360, PS3, PS2, and PSP. Tebow though has the collegiate stature that potentially could have been tempting enough for EA to consider using him as the sole cover athlete.

If they were to go the multi-cover route again some of the most likely names to be tossed around would include Ndamukong Suh, Sam Bradford, Jimmy Clausen, Eric Berry, and CJ Spiller. That makes the specific mention of EA Sports by one of the players especially interesting.

Suh posted a tweet on Thursday about how he was heading out to hang with people from EA Sports. While many players could have an association with a particular company such as EA it does seem to stick out as an indication of a deeper relationship, that possibly being that he has made a deal to appear on the cover of NCAA Football 11. Suh’s agent recently revealed that he has signed on with Nike and hinted that other agreements have been made. Timing wise it would appear to be more than just a coincidence.

What would you think so far if two of the four cover athletes were to be Tim Tebow and Ndamukong Suh? What two other players would you want to see get on the cover this year? Leave your thoughts in the comments!

I would love to see Suh on the PS3 cover.

Golden Tate and Toby Gerhart. Also I won't buy the Tebow edition of the game (unless he's on every cover (unless the rosters suck again)).

I think he's more likely a PSP/PS2 guy but the potential of going #1 could push him up.

The rosters are probably going to suck again. Expect them to be worse this year and maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised if they turn out to be decent.

He definitely deserves it. Would he be the first defensive player to be on a cover of NCAA Football?

Charles Woodson…NCAA Football '99…

Nevermind, Brian Orakpo was on the PS2 cover this past year and Charles Woodson was on the cover in 99.

Xbox 360= Tebow
PS3= Clausen
PsP= Spiller
Ps2= Suh
WII= Berry
Just guesses but it could happen

How do the rosters suck?

360-Tebow
PS3-Suh
PS2-McCoy
PSP-Clausen
Wii-Tebow alternate cover

The fact they never include any true freshman or transfers. It doesn't matter though EA is about to get dominated by Sam Keller.

Suh got a remarkable amount of publicity (for a DT) as the year went on. He could be marketable enough to do it.

He need to be on the XBOX 360 cover. I hope so. I think he was the most dominate player in football last season.

Forget Tim Tebow haha, put him on the PS3 cover. But I doubt that happens.

as long as tebow ISNT the cover athlete for 360, ill be able to sleep easy. if the worst is true, then ill have to put a bag over the cover and so on. sigh….

juan deleon

I doubt anyone buys NCAA for the coverboy…

It's a possibility, but Suh's got one thing going against him. He happens to be from the same school as one Sam Keller.
mike

is there any updated rosters on 2010 since the season is over?
Shockvalue24

Forget Suh, they should put me on the cover

im a tennessee fan but i still respect tebow, why dont you?

Suh dominated McCoy, but McCoy does have a bigger appeal to him since he is from Texas.

Future bust.

I just hope Tebow isn't on the 360 cover. I don't want to see him every time I put the game in. Love Suh, but he's probably a PS2/PSP cover guy like most have said.
zack91193

why bradford? he didnt do anything this year? i would rather tony pike be on there than bradford……i think it should be tebow, suh, mccoy, and berry. you cant have 3 qbs

I think his draft status combined with his Heisman finish and late season surge in popularity & awareness have him as the #2 guy behind Tebow. His team and statline improved at the right time.

McCoy's injury (plus the fact Orakpo was on a cover last year) puts him in limbo, IMO but I still think he's in the top four. Gerhart peaked mid-year, but I expect him to be on the PS2/PSP cover.

Though, each year a guy (or two) gets the cover that you don't expect. Some of these guys (like Suh) have agents known for big deals, so perhaps they price themselves out of the honor. We'll never know though.

everybody know its gone b tim tebow,i want it to be cj spiller
xvandicex – hit me up on PSN

360 – Tebow (Most people use 360, I use ps3, so no “homerism”, just facts)
PS3 – Suh
PS2 – Spiller
PSP – Colt McCoy

Toby Gerhart should be on a cover bottom line! Reason #1 Runner up for the heisman( heisman winner not eligible). #2 Posted the best overall rushing stats in the country. #3 Is probably the best student athlete of any of the contenders. #4 Single handedly brought Stanford back into national recognition with his senior performance.
