    Denard Robinson Wins NCAA Football 14 Cover Vote


    Former Michigan Star Storms through Final Round on His Way to the Cover

    The dust has settled and former University of Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson has emerged as the next NCAA Football cover athlete. Robinson faced a heated battle against Texas A&M wide receiver Ryan Swope in the finals, but was able emerge victorious after tallying over a quarter-million votes.

    Once Robinson was announced as a potential cover athlete, the NCAA record-holder for most career rushing yards for a quarterback rushed to Twitter, Facebook and other social media outlets to encourage fans to vote. Denard had a little help from his friends, getting support from former Michigan wide receiver Roy Roundtree, Heisman winner Desmond Howard and others.

    Michigan proved to be a powerhouse throughout the Cover Vote, consistently placing amongst the top finishers in every round. The university utilized its classic traditions, devoted alumni and strong national recognition to secure its advancement through the early rounds, and then threw all its support behind Robinson once he was announced as a potential cover athlete.

    Over the duration of the campaign the NCAA Football Cover Vote secured over 5 million votes from college football fans across the country. College football fans showed their passion throughout the competition, coming out in support of their favorite schools and athletes and making this the most successful Cover Vote in franchise history.

    Fans should continue checking the NCAA Football Facebook page in the coming weeks for more information on new features, exclusive assets, the announcement of the official release date and more.

        Got a feeling soon to come will be a big Marketing push concerning "Dual Threat Athletes".

        They've been non-existent through out the whole series as well as "Consistent" scrambling logic by AI QB's with the designation as a "Scrambler".

        Covers usually run parallel to something along the lines of some "All New" Marketing aspect they've thrown in.

              Yes, but @Mich, he was mainly a QB & thats the game we're talking about, no Madden25.

                The running QB's and Athletic players have not been non-existent in the NCaA football series. If that was the case how come in online i move my FB to Inside linebacker and he plays it well like real life. just cause you don't know how to play and use that type of player does not mean it's been non-existent. And no Denard robinson should not have been on this cover. looks like reward players that get benched hurt all the time and mediocre QB play for his entire Career. Any buckeye fan giving congrats to this bum is not a true buckeye fan. Go Bucks! Denard is a bum that lost and threw 4 picks in back to back primetime games to Alabama and nD. Now he is on the cover? NCAA is becoming a joke with the cover voting. they better add the physics system and gameplay engine that madden 13 had or else there is no hope for the series. that's all NCAA needs is the physics system and madden 13 gameplay engine for NCAA 14.

                  While I am certainly no OSU or Michigan fan, to say that he had anything less than a great career at Mich would be an understatment. While he didnt win any championships, he sure was exciting to watch

                    No one should be on the cover. It should say NCAA FOOTBALL and the trophy. That's it.

                          It is a game cover though.. I would pay 20 bucks more for this game if it had a pile of dog **** on it if the game was actually good.

                            Who didn't see this coming after the voting scandal came up? It was obvious he was going to win after that. Lets just hear about the game.

                              Good one. Hahaha. It's funny to hear people get worked up a cover picture and I'm not even referring to this site but the NCAA football facebook page. As a Michigan fan I could care less but I'm older.
                              Fav teams:
                              MLB: Tigers NFL: Lions NCAA: Michigan/WVU
