If Saban had stayed at LSU, they would have been what Bama currently is...

You have to wonder if Saban learned something from his time at Miami. He has certainly been even better at Bama than he was at either Michigan St or LSU. He recruited very similar at LSU but at Bama he had one bad year to begin with and then it was to a National Title level. I don't think Bama is set up that much better than LSU so it leads me to believe that his time at Miami improved his coaching ability in some kind of way.

Bama has far more resources in football than Lsu. At Bama it’s all about football and the other sports are minor to many.

Bama is the #1 football program in the country, when u win 5 of the last 9 it ain’t even close.

None of this was true before Saban got there. When Saban was at LSU and even for a little while with Miles at LSU, LSU and Bama were close to even. If Saban went to Michigan or Penn St or USC or Texas, that team would start competing for National Titles. The state of Louisiana is all about LSU. Bama does have to contend with Auburn. The state isn't as dominated by one school. In Louisiana, everyone is a LSU fan regardless of what university you went to. It might change if you played for La Tech or Tulane but the normal fans are all about LSU in football.
