23-year-old Ravens linebacker Rolando McClain retired from the NFL today, general manager Ozzie Newsome announced. But McClain will not be known as a Raven. He signed there just a little more than a month ago. He will instead be remembered as one of the Raideriest Raiders that ever Raidered.

It's good to be a wildly successful head coach of athletes who don't get paid. Nick Saban will make $5.6 million in base salary this year, so it's time to trade up from his North Georgia vacation home. Because sometimes, an $11 million house with a freaking lighthouse isn't swank enough.

This just might might be the most unintentionally hilarious important newscast of the year. It was the top story this morning on WJHG, the NBC affiliate in Panama City, Fla., and it's easy to see why: The arrest of "dozens" of people for the dastardly crimes of being young underage drinking and having someone willing to …

At this point, it's useless to compare buzzer-beaters. This one's the best, that one's the best, the one with the chunky Canadians is the best—it's all relative. But if you're a fan of unexpected end-of-game twists, graceful floaters from about 55 feet away, and jubilant hometown crowds, we recommend you watch the…

Fresh from Reddit, here's a photo of A.J. McCarron's SUV in what appears to be this parking lot behind Bryant Hall. The submitter says McCarron was one of four football players whose cars got clamped, since they didn't have a parking pass for that particular lot.

It's hard not to respect Nick Saban. Not because he's a good coach or anything, but because he constantly reminds us of college football's rich history. Want physics-defying running backs who wow us for two years before flopping in the pros? He's got 'em. Want linebackers simply bigger and stronger than the other…

After National Signing Day, the Alabama Crimson Tide once again boasted the nation's top recruiting class. One of that class's anchors was Reuben Foster, the five-star linebacker who notably got the Auburn logo tattooed on his leg before he de-committed.

After weeks of buildup, the BCS championship game turned out to be a total dud, with Alabama stomping Notre Dame 42-14 in a game that somehow was even less close than the final score would indicate. Despite the blowout, an unlikely star emerged. No, not Eddie Lacey—Katherine Webb.
