That point is moot because you don't always luck out and play a team at it's peak year. LSU scheduled Arizona, Arizona St, Fresno St, Oregon St and Virginia Tech in the last few seasons but when they were scheduled they were pretty good. Not so much when they played except VT. So scheduling quality opponents is hit or miss.
Florida will always play Florida St since it is an in-state rival. Not their fault they have been crappy the last few years.
Traditionally none of those teams you listed except Va Tech is very good. Arizona State had a few years with Jake Plummber, but those teams are mid level at best in their conferences normally.
Same thing that its no Ohio States fault the big ten is weaker this year, except there are 5 big 10 teams in the USA Today top 25 poll released today and Ohio State has all four scheduled back to back to back to back.
