How about we look at how they do against great/equal competition?
I'd love to but it can't be done. Pete played in a Pac-10 where the toughest competition every year was Oregon, yet somehow still managed to lose to the likes of Wash State, Oregon State, Arizona, and Stanford before they were built up and while USC was a 40+ point favorite.
The only contender from that conference during Carroll's time there was USC.
Meanwhile, Saban (to borrow from Gnash Rebel) played in the toughest neighborhood in college football - the SEC West.
While Saban has been at Bama, you've had 4 different teams from the conference win National Titles. From 2009-2015 some team from the state of Alabama has either won the title, played for the title, or been in the playoffs. USC didn't have that type of competition in their own conference, much less their own state.

Saban 10-12 against year end top 10
It is fairly obvious to non-biased fans Pete is a better coach when the talent level is close to even
If is also fairly obvious Saban is better at keeping his team focused
