I think you're reaching. And your argument assumes we didn't struggle against lesser teams before the Bama game, but we actually did.
For example, we beat a three-win Auburn team by 2 pts. Texas A&M beat them by 42 pts. We also struggled with FCS Towson. Finally, our offense only managed 200 yards against Florida (whose defense gave up an average of about 85 yards more than that per game - a statistic that is deflated by the LSU game!).
We were just an up and down team last year. Pure and simple. Our offense was inconsistent because Mett was inconsistent, especially on the road.
We were not championship caliber, in my opinion. Could we have beaten Bama, won the SEC title, and gone on to beat ND? Sure. Could we have also lost to Auburn, Ole Miss, and Arkansas? Yep.

The week after holding LSU to 200 yards (and 42 on the ground), Florida gave up close to 400 to Vanderbilt (363).
Just gives you some perspective. We struggled. We were not championship material last year.
