Notre Dame junior Mike McGlinchey will make his second career start Saturday when the Irish host fellow blue blood Texas. Snap-to-snap physicality and the occasional altercation are expected to be the order of the day…
A portent of future Irish practice sessions played out in the midst of Notre Dame’s most recent contest, a much-needed 31-28 victory over SEC heavy LSU last December.
Following a second quarter snap in which current Florida State triggerman Everett Golson was deposited into the Adelphia Coliseum turf, first-time starting right tackle Mike McGlinchey made his way to the Irish sidelines.
That was his second mistake.
