He walked off under his own power, and he came back to the sidelines after being tended to. IF it were a serious injury, it's unlikely he would have been standing on it for an hour in the second half. In the post-game interview with Todd Husak, Shaw was pretty tight lipped, but he certainly gave the impression that if Phillips is out, it is for a couple weeks, not for months or the rest of the season. Shaw even held out some hope that he'd be back for the USC game. Of course, until the injury is defined and Phillips gets cleared to return to play, all bets are off. I've seen plenty of "two week" injuries that sideline someone for two months, and plenty of severe seeming injuries that result in a "miraculous" recovery. Most likely, though is out a couple games. Major bummer; when in, Phillips was a beast and we could use him against the Trojans OL.
