At the moment, I have Ohio State #2 and that's only because they're 8-0 while Clemson's 9-0. When the Tigers were 8-0 the Buckeyes were #1. Of the 7 teams still unbeaten, OSU easily has the best schedule played so far. This is based on win-loss differential of the opponents played with an automatic -20 for any non-FBS foe. CU is currently at -24 with their differential which would put them behind Ohio State, LSU, Alabama, and Penn State if they all had the same record. Coincidentally those are the 4 teams currently in the Chosen 4 spots with the Tigers 5th.
Also note that of these teams, the Buckeyes are the only one with a positive differential, which is 11.
1- Clemson [9-0]
2- Ohio State [8-0][11]
3- LSU [8-0][-11]
4- Alabama [8-0][-13]
5- Penn State [8-0][-22]
6- Baylor [8-0][-26]
7- Minnesota [8-0][-29]
