You can't have it both ways. Let's say LSU could magically create a schedule that played 1 or 2 of the best teams from the other Power 5 conferences every year. We'd always have only 7 home games because we'd always be returning a trip to the Okalhomas, Florida States, UCLA's of the world. You can't get top flight teams to come play in Baton Rouge without going back to their place. It just doesn't happen.
That's why the neutral site games are such a big hit with all the schools. They get to play the tougher matchups without having to guarantee a return anywhere.
So we would rather play AT Syracuse than Miami? Wouldn't Miami benefit LSU WAY more in recruiting?

You're assuming it was an option. Miami may not have been willing to make the return trip.
Schedule making is a two-way street.
I don't make it to as many LSU games as I used to, but when I was going regularly I would have loved to see Wisconsin, TCU, Miami, Oregon come to Tiger Stadium. But that's not the way the business works right now.
