LOS ANGELES -- UCLA kicker Kai Forbath is returning for his senior season.

Forbath won the Lou Groza Award as the nation's top kicker last season, and was a second-team AP All-American. He made 28 of 31 field goal attempts, including all 25 from inside 50 yards.

He led the nation with 2.15 field goals per game, and has made 37 straight field goals from inside 50 yards.

Forbath is second on UCLA's career list with 72 field goals. He says he decided to return to build on the momentum of the Bruins' 7-6 season, capped by a victory over Temple in the EagleBank Bowl.
