The total number of wins vs. ranked opponents actually means nothing at all... Regardless of rank, these 7 teams still aren't all that great, and to make your argument worse, only 4 of those teams finished the season ranked.. When a top 5 team beats a lower ranked team, then all they've really done is beat a team that they should have beaten.. I could say the same for the 3 ranked teams that Bama beat(only 2 are currently ranked)...If you're the 3rd best team in the country, playing a 10th ranked team is really no different than playing an unranked one..

Basically, when facing teams ranked lower than themselves, OSU was 11-1. And in the same scenario, Alabama was 11-0. And none of Alabama's games under this scenario were even close..
