Will McDonald is well on his way to putting some serious pressure on JaQuan Bailey’s newly broken career sack record. The redshirt sophomore currently sits at 13.5 career sacks, 6.5 those are in 2020. McDonald came on strong to end the 2019 season and he really hasn’t slowed down since. That is going to have to continue on Saturday as Sam Ehlinger will be sitting behind a beefy Texas offensive line.
Texas throws a variety of plays at you on the offensive side of the ball and being a versatile defender certainly helps against that. We have seen Will McDonald primarily at the defensive end spot but he has also spent time in coverage at the linebacker position.
