Saban couldn't win one at A&M. Bear Bryant freaking couldn't.
Bryant was only at A&M for 3 years and won a SWC championship. When Bryant was the head coach at Vanderbilt, they didn't win a NC either but, Vandy was glad to have him. If he had stayed at either A&M or Vandy, he likely would have won a NC.
Modern A&M is a different animal though. Unlimited and disposable resources, a vibrant fan-base, and a real hunger for success from everyone involved in the football program.
The college football universe doesn't want to see Saban at A&M but, many Alabama fans and A&M fans think it would be wonderful.

Trolling aside, Bryant absolutely could have won a title at A&M, instead he essentially quit on A&M before the season ended. Bryant did us dirty in that 1957 season. Had A&M at #1 in the polls, and then showed up to A&M's practice in the suit he interviewed for Bama in, and didn't try to hide the fact that he was leaving A&M. Team fell apart after that, and Bryant was at Bama by the end of the year.
