This is the averages the schedules that both teams have played. Keep in mind I didn’t include Northwestern State in any of this so the averages (12 games vs 13 games) is a bit off.

ESPN FPI:
Ohio State
- Average FPI of Opponents 49.8
- Average FPI of Road Opponents 58.4
LSU:
- Average FPI of Opponents 40.5
- Average FPI of Road Opponents 39.8

Opponents’ Total Offense Ranks:
Ohio State 78.3
LSU 62.08

How is 1 and 2 even a debate?

So you excluded LSU's worst team but not Ohio State?

Why are you dumping any team? Thag makes no sense.

You played a bad FCS team, that deserves to lower your average opponent ranking.

I dumped them because they aren’t included in ESPN FPI or the total offense on NCAA rankings.

But I’ll be fair. We shall call Miami (OH) OSU’s Northwestern State.

Avg FPI of Opponents:
Ohio State 45.16
LSU 40.5

Avg Road FPI of Opponents:
Ohio State 58.4
LSU 39.8

Avg Offense Faced:
Ohio State 74.66
LSU 62.08

Still not close

Northwestern Louisiana is ranked 75th in the Massey Composite, FOR FCS.

That's how bad they are.

Miami is playing in the MAC title game.

130 +75 = 205th.

Use that.
