REDWOOD CITY, Calif. -- Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS) announced today that former University of Southern California All-American running back and 2005 Heisman Memorial Trophy(R) Award winner Reggie Bush will appear on the cover of NCAA(R) Football 07, the newest iteration of EA SPORTS(TM) best-selling college football video game franchise.

"This has been an amazing year for me and being chosen for the cover of NCAA Football 07 is a great way to end my college career," said Bush. "I've grown up playing EA SPORTS games and never imagined I would see myself on the cover of one."

Bush, who is expected to be one of the top picks in the NFL Draft this weekend, also won the Walter Camp Award (Player of the Year), Doak Walker Award (Best Collegiate Running Back), 2005 Associated Press Player of the Year Award and The Sporting News Player of the Year Award.
