Zachariah Branch - Non-factor for second week in a row Branch had two receptions (on four targets) for six yards during Saturday's 33-30 overtime loss against Penn State. Impact Branch logged season-lows across the board. The sophomore wideout had big expectations coming into this season after earning first-team All-American recognition during his true freshmancampaign. But, he's now recorded just five catches (on 10 targets) for just 16 yards over the last two games, and he's yet to record more than six catches or 100 receiving yards in any game this season. Branch has yet to really hit as the Trojans' go-to explosive pass-catcher this season, as he's logged only three receptions of more than 20 yards. With his production trailing off over the past two weeks, the 5-foot-10 wideout will hope to bounce back over the back-half of the season, starting with next week's game at Maryland.
