Amon-Ra St. Brown was clearly waiting all day for Sunday night.

St. Brown, USC's star junior wide receiver, scored four touchdowns in the first quarter of the Trojans' game against Washington State as USC raced out to a 28-0 lead.

In just 15 minutes of game time, St. Brown tied the USC and Pac-12 record for touchdowns scored in a single game. He also tied an NCAA record for most touchdowns in a quarter. Coming into the game, St. Brown had 19 catches for 266 yards in three games, but had yet to find the end zone.

His last touchdown of the quarter was a goal line fade in tight coverage:

St. Brown amassed 35 receiving yards in the first, scoring on each reception. Slovis was 12-for-13 for 133 yards in the first quarter.
