Penn State football's road to the national championship starts Saturday, and its currently sitting at No. 2 behind Texas in preseason rankings. While the top two teams won't meet during the regular season, it's not a long shot that the Nittany Lions and Longhorns face each other in the College Football Playoff.
Just like many other projections, Greg McElroy doesn't think head coach James Franklin's team will get the job done all the way through to winning the national title. Ohio State is the big challenge ahead for Penn State and will be in the postseason between the Big Ten Championship Game and the CFP.
