We will be next year. I doubt your coach and your team is underestimating us. If we manage to avoid the NFL bug this year, we will compete for the SEC title.
You are drawing conclusions from a season in which we had a first year starter at QB and freshmen making key contributions at virtually every skilled position.
Your argument is, in a word, myopic. If I had to use two words, myopic and dumb.

but, Bama had a 15th string RB as their starting QB (15th string = 15 NC.....get it? lol) and they had a freshman starting at left tackle, the most important position on the field to protect their 15th string RB

BS!
Miles's LSU was upset twice in 2005 including the 34-14 embarrassment in the SEC Championship.
Arkansas won the division in 2006.
LSU lost two 3OT game to 8-5 teams in 2007. LSU scraped by several average teams including Tennessee in the SEC Championship and shot back up the rankings after Missouri and West Virginia lost their final regular season games.
2008 LSU was 8-5 (3-5).
2009 LSU was 9-4 (4-4). Those close losses are countered by LSU's close wins.
2010 LSU finished 3rd in the SEC West.
2011 LSU was the first Miles team to go 12-1 or better in the regular season; that has not been repeated.
2012 LSU went 10-3.
2013 LSU went 10-3 (5-3).
2014 LSU is 8-4 (4-4).
No, I am not looking at one season to draw conclusions. I'm looking at the records from his entire tenure.
