NBC Sports sends dire warning on Ohio State's consequences if Buckeyes lose to Texas

The Ohio State Buckeyes have a tough road ahead to defend their College Football Playoff National Championship. On August 30, they face what could be their toughest test of the season against the Texas Longhorns at "The Shoe."

NBC Sports' Vaughn Dalzell believes OSU has more questions than answers this season, and suggested a 9-3 season -- most likely a non-CFP season assuming enough teams win 10 games -- is possible if they lose, since the Penn State Nittany Lions are coming to town on November 1 and "The Game" is in Ann Arbor to cap off the regular season.
