So far, everything that can go wrong, has gone wrong for the USC Trojans on Saturday night out in Tempe against the Arizona State Sun Devils. At the moment the embattled Trojans trail in the game 48-27 in the fourth quarter.

But, of all the bad that has happened tonight for Lane Kiffin and crew, the worst case scenario probably happened early on in this fourth quarter.

Captain and star wide receiver Marqise Lee went down with a knee injury and was taken out of the game just a little after the final period began. Pretty much the only bright spot on this team offensively, is not expected to return to the game.

Before going down with the injury, Lee had seven catches for 92 yards against the Sun Devils. Marqise is the second Pac-12 star to go down tonight, as Oregon’s De’Anthony Thomas left his game before also.

As soon as there is more information on Lee’s status, we’ll have that updated immediately and we wish the All-American a speedy recovery.
