Zachariah Branch - Logs six targets versus Wisconsin Branch accrued four receptions (on six targets) for 44 yards during Saturday's 38-21 win over Wisconsin. He also rushed once for 15 yards. Impact Branch had a comeback-to-earth game after seeing 12 targets during last week's loss to Michigan. Instead, the Trojans focused on exploiting their size mismatches on the outside versus Wisconsin, as quarterback Miller Moss went to 6-foot-4 wideout Ja'Kobi Lane for 13 targets Saturday. Moss has been spreading the ball around among this talented corps of receivers, though he's seemed to hone in on one specific target in a few games with Kyron Hudson in Week 1, Branch in Week 3 and Lane in Week 4. Nevertheless, Branch has been the most consistent target through four games, averaging 4.5 receptions on 7.3 targets per game. He's still yet to find the end zone this year, which could come during next Saturday's road game at Minnesota.
