USC has banned linebacker Osa Masina from campus while authorities investigate allegations he raped a woman back in July ... this according to Masina's attorney.

TMZ Sports broke the story ... officials are investigating allegations that Masina and Don Hill had sex with a woman who claims she was drugged up and near unconscious at Hill's L.A. apartment back in July.

The alleged victim told police 19-year-old Masina recorded the incident and Snapchatted it to her ex-boyfriend -- a football player who plays for the University of Arizona.

The woman claims Masina then raped her on a 2nd occasion in Utah later that month.

USC had previously suspended Masina from the football team -- but now his attorney Greg Skordas has told the Daily Trojan he's been banned from being on the campus altogether.

"He's now been removed from the school all together, not just the football team. He's not allowed to practice. He's not even allowed to be on the campus."

Skordas said Masina learned about the decision on Friday night and has returned to his home in Utah.

When reached for comment, USC told TMZ Sports they could not comment on Masina's status with the university ... only saying he has been suspended from any participation with the football team.

Tennessee Titans linebacker Avery Williamson says he was conflicted about wearing special cleats to pay tribute to 9/11 victims ... so he asked for advice from the man upstairs ... and God told him to lace up.

As you've probably heard, Williamson said he was concerned about his cleats being a distraction -- and even possibly earning him a fine from the NFL -- and waffled about the footwear.

Check out the clip ... Williamson explains how he prayed for an answer -- and got one.

There's more ... Williamson also says he got love on Sunday from one of the people holding the American flag during the National Anthem -- and it's the kind of story that gives you the tingles.

UFC stud Mickey Gall says it was "an honor" to be spoofed by WWE after his fight with CM Punk -- but admits, it was probably meant to be a shot at the former wrestler.

Gall appeared on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs Tuesday night on FS1) -- when we asked about WWE recreating the UFC 203 match at the "Backlash" Pay-Per-View event the next day.

"That's cool, man," Gall said ... "It's an honor."

As for what inspired the spoof, Gall says ... "I think it's not so much me but their feelings against him ... so, I guess thats kinda crappy. But you know, hey, I loved it."

And, now that he's a famous athlete, we asked which Kardashian he wants to bang. Check out his answer.

There's a lot more on the show tonight -- and Gall tells us which big UFC event he's campaigning to fight at next.

President Obama says his #2 is ALL IN on the Eagles rookie QB -- with Joe Biden advising POTUS to get on the "Wentz Wagon" ASAP.

Obama was stumping for Hillary Clinton out in Philly earlier Tuesday -- when he talked about how impressed his Vice President was with Carson Wentz when he attended the Eagles game over the weekend.

"He told me, 'Barack, you gotta get on the Wentz Wagon!'"

It's pretty funny ... but Obama says there's NO WAY he'll root for the Birds -- "I explained, 'Joe, I am a Bears fan and we play Philly next Monday night. So, I gotta stick with my team!"

FYI, Biden's a HUGE Eagles fan -- and even took pics with the team after Wentz led the team to victory on Sunday.

Rosie Perez is sick and tired of Canelo Alvarez avoiding GGG's quick hands ... saying it's past time the Mexican superstar step up to the plate and take on Gennady Golovkin.

We got Rosie out in NYC -- looking pretty amazing -- and asked her thoughts on GGG's punishing performance against middleweight contender Kell Brook this past weekend.

She told our guy she thought GGG looked great ... so great that Rosie says she's getting kinda pissed he's not getting a crack at the big PPV fights ... namely the rumble with Alvarez, which would be the biggest fight in boxing.

Same ol' protest ... brand new hairdo!

Colin Kaepernick decided to put his 'fro on hold Monday night while the 49ers took on the Rams -- and broke out a brand new hairstyle ... cornrows!

CK's dome has gone through all sorts of changes since he came into the league -- he's like the black Tom Brady ... only without the Super Bowl rings.

Check out the pics ... keep the rows?? Or go back to the 'fro???

Lil Wayne just put himself in the national convo about race and police brutality by revealing a bombshell -- he's NEVER dealt with racism.

The rapper made the surprising admission to Skip Bayless on "Undisputed" on FS1. Check out the vid ... Skip asks Weezy -- who grew up in New Orleans -- about race relations and what he experiences in his day-to-day life, and uhhh ...

The guy who invaded the field during the 49ers vs. Rams game last night -- and covered more ground than Case Keenum -- was arrested immediately following his 4th quarter romp.

The invasion actually went viral, thanks to the brilliant live commentary of MNF announcer Kevin Harlan ... who proclaimed, "The guy is drunk, but there he goes!"

He later described the incident as, "The most exciting thing to happen tonight."

It was.

But it came at a cost for the invader -- who happened to be an underage male ... according to the Santa Clara PD.

A police spokesperson confirms the kid was arrested for an unspecified misdemeanor.

More importantly ... maybe the Rams should give him a tryout.

The NFL has no plans to fine Tennessee Titans linebacker Avery Williamson for his custom 9/11 cleats he wore on Sunday ... TMZ Sports has learned.

We broke the story ... Williamson planned the tribute back in August and had custom cleats made with a patriotic theme and the words, "Never Forget" on the back.

Williamson said he was contacted by a league rep over the cleats and advised not to wear them. Several police organizations and even his coach offered to pay for any potential fines.

But when we asked the NFL if Williamson would be fined, since he ended up wearing them on Sunday -- we were told straight-up by a league spokesperson, "No, nothing anticipated."

As for the cleats, Williamson is auctioning them off with proceeds going to Operation Warrior Wishes.

Kid Rock ain't a fan of Colin Kaepernick's protest.

The rocker was performing "Born Free" at Fenway Park in Boston over the weekend -- when he stopped mid-song to tell the crowd, "Man, f*** Colin Kaepernick!"

(Skip to :50 seconds)

Lil Wayne says he IS retired from music ... at least, for now ... and it's all over his war with Birdman.

The rapper just appeared on "Undisputed" on FS1 -- where Skip Bayless got straight to the point and asked if his tweets about retiring from music earlier this month were real.

The explanation ... Weezy says when he posted the tweet, he was PISSED OFF following a heated argument over his business relationship with Cash Money Records.

Wayne claims Birdman owes him millions -- and it's having a real impact on his personal life.

"I have a family. I have kids. I have a mother. We have bills. This is just business."

Wayne says he will NEVER work with Birdman ever again -- and for all intents and purposes, considers himself retired ... at least, until he gets paid.

He did send this message to his former boss -- "Gimme mine and I'll walk free."

Snoop Dogg LOOOVED Antonio Brown's twerkalicious touchdown dance Monday night -- in fact, Snoop busted out a version of his own right after the game!

"You see that dance he did??? He just f***ed 'em," Snoop said.

"That was a cold dance move! I want to do it myself!"

Antonio got flagged for his dance. Snoop got high after his.

How much Shaq is too much Shaq???

When you can see all of his man junk flopping around in his undies ... so says Teyana Taylor and Iman Shumpert.

Of course, Shaq recently spoofed Teyana's insanely hot routine in Kanye's "Fade" video -- dancing around in his underwear just like Teyana.

The good news ... Teyana and Iman LOVED the dancing.

The bad news ... they hated the ultra-revealing outfit.

One thing we can all agree on ... you should probably watch the original "Fade" video again.

Ryan Lochte was on the verge of being attacked Monday night during the live season premiere of "Dancing with the Stars" ... and the men who rushed the stage were taken down by security and detained.

Lochte had just finished a foxtrot with Cheryl Burke and they were standing next to Tom Bergeron to get the judges' feedback, when a group in the audience ripped their shirts open to reveal the round symbol for "No Lochte" on their t-shirts. The group was booing the swimmer when one rushed the stage.

Both men were arrested for criminal trespassing.

Colin Kaepernick's National Anthem protest has made it to "South Park" -- where the guys spoofed the controversy with a "Cops Are Pigs" version of "The Star-Spangled Banner."

In a 30 second teaser for Wednesday's show, a bunch of the characters are singing the Anthem at a sporting event with the following lyrics ...

"Colin Kaepernick is brave ... cops are pigs, cops are pigs

Wait, someone just took my stuff, I need to call the cops

Oh no, I just said 'Cops are pigs' ... who's gonna help me get my stuff?

Why did I listen to Colin Kaepernick, he's not even any good

Oh I just got my stuff back, cops are pigs again, cops are pigs

Colin Kaepernick's a good backup ..."
