Neither invented their program... but Saban's work is more impressive considering the level competition.

What do Saban's numbers look like if he took the USC job whenever Carroll got there?
What do Pete's look like if he took over UA in 07?

It is really a shame that USC didn't get an opportunity to play more SEC teams in bowls, or otherwise.
2003 USC shutout a Preseason #1 Auburn.
2006 USC clobbered 2006 SEC West Champion Arkansas.
Looking back, those 2003, 2007, and 2008 USC teams had just as much of a right to play for the National Championship as LSU ('03 & '07), Oklahoma ('03 & '08), and Florida ('08).

Yep. Its a shame that coaches and players have no control over making it to a national title in cfb. Cfb national title is the most subjective title in all of sports. After every single bcscg, analyst would debate over whether or not the two participants were correct.

Which has nothing to do with the thread.

Well, the thread is skewed towards Saban because Carroll can actually hack it in the pros.

On his second stint. 16-16 in his first 2 years, which was about the same as Saban's.

He was a playoff coach his first stint also.

What did Saban do when he was a .500 coach in the NFL?

Nit picking a little but it looks like the OP has Saban's total showing the forfieted games but is not reflecting Carrol's forfeited games for 04 and 05 and the vacated title in 04.
