Auburn QB and Heisman winner Cam Newton has decided to enter the NFL Draft. Coming from seemingly out of nowhere to lead the Tigers to the National Championship, Newton put up a spectacular season throwing for 2854 yards with 30 TDs to just 7 INTs and rushing for 1473 yards and 20 TDs. He has a load of potential with a big arm, good height and large frame, and terrific athleticism. Newton is projected as a first rounder but concerns could keep him from going at the top of the draft. Certain...

Reports from those who have has been heavily negative going as far as to say the game for ...

2010 Year in Review Recap
It was a year in sports gaming that had a couple really great offerings followed by several good titles that lacked significantly in certain areas. In that sense it was no different than any other year though distinctly more top-heavy.

EA Sports has one nod with NCAA Football 09, and last year's winner UFC Undisputed 2009 came from THQ. UFC Undisputed 2010 dropped co...

Nick Fairley Now Looks Like Top Pick
With his standout performance in the BCS National Championship game, Auburn defensive tackle Nick Fairley may have cemented his stock as the prospective number one pick in the NFL Draft. Fairley was already projected to go high, likely in the top three, but the dominance on a national stage may have propelled him into the role as the front-runner.
