The issue would only be that OSU hasn't played a team who is good on both sides of the ball (although you could argue the same for LSU). UGA has the best win of the season, but I do think ND is a step or two below the top 5 or so.
OSU's opponents record is 20-12 right now against FBS teams, far better than anyone elses. The issue is those teams don't have top 25 resumes themselves.
The question is and always should be IMO is it better to beat 8 teams in the 26-55 range, or 3 teams in the 5-15 range and 5 teams in the 60-85 range. The SOS for the first team would be pretty good, but the second team's schedule is more difficult in reality

Alabama's opponents are probably 20-12 against FCS teams.

True. But they've also been dominant against their opponents.

Going to have to disagree with you there. Certainly ND appears to be a good team. But that game was in Georgia. ND faced arguably the toughest crowd in UGA history and still had a shot to tie late. On the flip side, LSU beat top 10 Texas ON THE ROAD. Road wins always trump home wins IMO
Clemson has struggled. Bama, OSU and Oklahoma haven't played great schedules, but they have also done what great teams do and hammer those opponents. LSU and UGA have the "best" wins of the top 6 teams (though you could maybe make the case Wisconsin should be in the conversation as well)

why dude?
can't stand baseless statements. you think many teams could have gone into uga and played them close? naa.. don't even start. Irish have been impressive every week. but you only gas up big ten teams. thats the issue here

I think most people would say LSU at Texas is the best win of the season so far.
