A few more?
There's definitely a chance he may never win another one.
When Saban came to the SEC West, it was much weaker than it is now. He made everyone step up their game and now everything is a lot more competitive.
He has a better chance than anyone else, all things considered, but just winning one more would be an outstanding accomplishment.
tl:dr you guys are a tad bit delusional
Not really. Has the West caught up? Possibly, but the last two classes haven't fully taken effect yet, and they were stronger than the two before them. This one coming in may be his best yet. And despite popular belief, unless something big happens, he'll stick around for at least another 4 years. I'd say safe money is him getting 1 more at least.

Nope, it's between Bama and Auburn/LSU. No one else has competed for the west in years

There are 4 major parts of being a head coach:
1. organizing and facilitating the program, which includes most of the activities and duties that occur off the field,
2. recruiting
2. preparing for the next team
4. game day coaching and adjustments
It is often acknowledged that Saban is great at the first 3, but average at the 4th. Being average at game day coaching, adjustments, and winning close games against spirited or equally talented foes can render the first 3 aspects of head coaching moot. If Alabama does not win another national title under Saban, it'll be because of reason #4.
