Where I Come From: EA Sports NCAA Football 2011 Available Now

This post is sponsored by EA Sports NCAA Football 11.

It's Christmas in July for college football fans as today marks the release of the latest in EA Sports' NCAA Football series. If you don't want to look at Tim Tebow for the next 12 months, you can get your hands on the covers made above by readers Casey Richey and Gobbler. Enjoy the game and may it get you through the next month and a half.

And now, a word from our sponsor:

When you go to a particular school or grow up around college football, you are more than just a fan. It's who you are. We thought we could leverage this pride in your roots and show that "where you come from" is more than just a statement about geography. By positioning NCAA Football 11 as a game that understands this pride and is authentic to these traditions, the takeaway should be that anything that is in college football is in NCAA Football 11.

And this doesn't just include game play (though that's a huge part of it). It's rivals and mascots; it's legends and stories. It's those things that are at the very fabric of the game itself. Of course the game is great this year as well. With authentic entrances, mascots and specific offenses for each team, the term "where I come from" takes on a much larger meaning. While playing NCAA Football 11 is ultimately a great sports sim, it should also give you a sense of the pride and emotion one has for being a fan of a team they will never not be a part of.

Hope you enjoyed our "Where I Come From" series as much as I did. We're getting close to real, actual football, guys.
