BYU football: Injury could keep Oldroyd from kicking against West Virginia

Oldroyd will still make the trip to Washington, D.C., but if he can't play, sophomore Rhett Almond will handle the place-kicking chores, Lamb said. Almond kicked the two PATs after BYU's touchdowns in Saturday's 17-14 loss to UCLA.

Lamb said Oldroyd was actually showing signs of the injury, yet to be officially disclosed by BYU, before he attempted the 55-yard field goal at the end of the first half that was blocked.

"It was something that just kinda showed up in pregame and then just got worse and worse," Lamb said. "We felt like the right thing to do was rest him for the rest of the game, at halftime.
