Alabama is on a completely different level than everybody else right now, and he doesn't make the stupid coaching decisions Les Miles does. LSU could easily do what Alabama does, but Les Miles gets in his own way.
Best advantage he has over the rest of the SEC is how easily he keeps developing NFL-quality defenses each year. LSU gets lucky maybe once every 3-4 years while Florida was really great for just 2 years.

Also helps that he's really close to Belichick to the point every offseason they hang out together a few times. Usually BB gives Saban defense advice and Saban gives him advice on what players to go after from the SEC for a draft.
