Hit the game winner vs Arizona as time expired and hit 2 40+ yarders on the road in a rivalry game. If I'm remembering right, I think his only miss was that end of the 1st half 55+ yarder vs UCLA that he got hurt on, which most college kickers would miss.

Oldroyd is looking in pretty good shape for a kicker. Nice. Impressive kick.

I have trouble understanding how he put enough force in with so little windup

That’s because it’s photoshopped!

I've always said kickers should do no step for extra points.

Is it harder on the body than a normal kick?

6/15/19 11:47am

I’m thinking it would be.

BYU is going to be awesome!

Having a good kicker will win us a game or two that we wouldn’t otherwise.

Ugh....that extra point miss in the Utah game last year.

Kicking is all about the pressure.

Good thing he’s proven that he’s good with pressure

6/15/19 12:24pm

I'm not sure if all kickers can do that but its really impressive to see it

Uh, no. Not all kickers could do that. Many don’t kick 42’s that look that

How?

6/15/19 12:24pm

After years of watching our kickers struggle to connect from 40 yds....

Was that really 42 yards. I keep trying to count 5 yard hashes.

PJMort

6/15/19 2:52pm

The 10 yards in the end zone?

Pigskin Pete

6/15/19 3:08pm

I’m including the 10 yard end zone. I count 37 yards. Still impressive.

PJMort

6/15/19 3:40pm

I counted 42 yards

6/15/19 9:40pm

When does Oldroyd turn 16?

Impressive, but doesn’t he actually miss the FG?

6/15/19 7:08pm

No, good!!!
