I would argue in terms of actual better team vs better in their year.
I think if you compare Bama in 2020 vs LSU 2019 they are similar obviously by the pic in the OP. But 2020 because of covid was a down year in football across the country. If you think the level of play in 2020 was anywhere close to 2019, you are kidding yourself.
Bama 2020 was great in their year, but I would happily take the 2019 Bama team (playing at their best) vs the 2020 Bama team (playing at their best) if you gave me the choice.
Kind of like teams from the 70s and 80s couldn't compete with teams today but they were dominant for their time.
Now, I know no Bama fan wants to agree with this, but teams didn't get spring practice or had very limited practice, many teams had top players (not just LSU) sit out the year. Many teams played games shorthanded once or twice.
The level of play was just down.

All you are saying is that the year had a lot of extra difficulties to overcome.
Unless you are telling me that everyone but Alabama had to deal with those things, it makes it a harder season, not easier.
