An honors candidate (pre-season “watch list” for the 2008 Outland Trophy and the Lombardi Award), redshirt senior tackle BRIGHAM HARWELL (#93) is fourth on the squad with 46 tackles and is third with 5.5 tackles for loss. He is first among Pac-10 defensive linemen with his 5.11 tackles average and tied for 36th overall.

One of the top young players at his position in the nation, true sophomore defensive tackle BRIAN PRICE (#92) leads the team with 10.0 tackles for loss (eight in the last six games) and is eighth in the Pac-10 with 1.11 tackles for loss per game. He is second on the squad with 3.5 sacks (T-11th in Pac-10). He has made 17 tackles for loss in his last 13 games dating back to last year.

Redshirt junior defensive end KOREY BOSWORTH (#55) is fifth (tied) on the squad with 42 tackles. He leads the Bruins with 5.5 sacks and is second with 9.0 tackles for loss. He is fifth in the Pac-10 in sacks (0.61) and ninth (tied) in TFL (1.00).

Redshirt junior REGGIE CARTER (#51), one of the top linebackers in the nation, has a team-high 67 tackles, including 4.5 for loss which is fourth on the squad. He is fourth in the Pac-10 with his 7.44 tackles per game.

True junior cornerback ALTERRAUN VERNER (#1) is considered one of the top corners in the nation and was on the pre-season “Watch List” of the Lott Trophy (nation’s top defensive player). Verner ranks second on the squad with 57 tackles. He ranks 15th in the Pac-10 in tackles (6.33) and fifth in the Pac-10 and eighth in the NCAA with 1.44 pass defenses per game. He is also T-15th in the Pac-10 in interceptions (0.22).

Redshirt junior KEVIN CRAFT (#3) leads the Pac-10 in completions (20.44), and is third in total offense (215.56) and fourth in passing yards (212.56). He has completed 184 of 328 passes for 1,913 yards, seven touchdowns and 13 interceptions. His 184 completions already rank ninth on UCLA’s single-season and career lists. His average of 20.5 completions per game would set a new single-season school record over 12 games (245). He is also on pace to pass for over 2,500 yards. His 27 completions against Oregon rank 10th (tied) in school history for a single game.

True junior TERRENCE AUSTIN (#4) leads the team with 40 receptions and is averaging 24.54 yards on 37 kickoff returns and 10.53 yards on 15 punt returns. He leads the Pac-10 and ranks seventh nationally with his average of 169.00 all-purpose yards. He also ranks seventh in the Pac-10 in receptions (4.44), first in kickoff returns and fifth in punt returns.
His 37 kickoff returns are a new UCLA single-season record and his 908 kickoff return yards rank second. He is also the only player in school history to gain over 200 yards on kickoff returns in a game twice in a career.
At his current pace of 169.00 all-purpose yards, he would finish the regular season with 2,028 yards, breaking Maurice Drew’s mark of 1,863, set in 2005. He already ranks seventh on the single-season list with 1,521 yards. In receiving, he would finish with 53 catches at his current pace, the most by a Bruin since Marcedes Lewis in 2005 (58).

True freshman TAYLOR EMBREE (#82) is second on the squad with his 35 receptions and leads the team with 478 yards. His average of 13.7 yards is the second-highest on the team among players with at least five receptions. He has produced a team-high 26 first downs with his 35 receptions.
His receptions and receiving yards totals are UCLA records for true freshmen. He also ranks ninth in the Pac-10 in receiving yards (53.11) and receptions (3.89).

Redshirt junior RYAN MOYA (#15) leads all Pac-10 tight ends with his 34 receptions and is 10th (tied) overall in the league in receiving (3.78 per game). He is the team’s third-leading receiver and leads the squad with three receiving touchowns. His 315 yards are third on the squad.
Moya’s 34 receptions are the most by a Bruin tight end since 2005, when Marcedes Lewis made 58 receptions (a school record for tight ends), and Moya ranks fifth on the single-season tight end list.

Nine different Bruins have started on the offensive line this season and three have started at two different positions. Seven players have made their first start on the line this year. UCLA has used seven lineups in nine games.

One of the best punters in the nation and an honors candidate, redshirt senior AARON PEREZ (#17) is averaging 44.75 yards on 59 kicks and ranks 10th in the NCAA and second in the Pac-10. Twenty of his 59 kicks have been for at least 50 yards and 17 have been downed inside the 20-yard line. In his four-year career, he is averaging 42.44 yards per punt, fifth highest in school history. He also ranks second with 266 punts (the record is 267 by Nate Fikse in 1999-02) and 11,289 yards (Fikse’s record is 11,420).

KAI FORBATH (#25), one of the nation’s top kickers ranks sixth on the all-time UCLA field goals made list with 39. His average of 1.56 field goals this year is tied for the Pac-10 lead and ranks 20th (tied) in the NCAA. He is also 10th in the league in scoring and fifth in kick-scoring (6.56). He has made eight straight field goal attempts and 12 of his last 13 over seven games. His 14 field goals in 2008 rank No. 15 (tied) on UCLA’s single-season list (his 25 field goals last year rank No.3 on that same list).
