It's a decent comparison but Alabama doesn't have the experience in the secondary to even be as dominant as the 2011 unit.
The main factor that made that 1992 secondary so good was the defensive line. You had two 1st Team All-Americans playing up front on virtually every play in '92. They got lots and lots of pressure on opposing QBs, thus forcing bad throws, thus leading to lots of interceptions and pass break ups. The only team that defensive front didn't get consistent pressure on were the Florida Gators in the SEC Championship Game. Coincidentally enough, Florida was the Tide's toughest challenge that season.
