IF you haven't noticed, we play teams that have 8-10 people leave for the draft.

Our talent is good, but we have this imaginary talent gap between us and other elite teams, that really isn't there.

Throw in there that we play in a competitive league where shite happens, this is the season you get sometimes.

This.
And also, Saban. Without Saban, Les probably wins the 2011 NC and accomplished maybe the greatest season in cfb history. 2012, losing to Saban cost LSU the west division and dropped down to chicken bowl. No team has done great against Saban but no other team had as much to lose.

There IS a talent difference for sure. Bama gets far better Oline recruits, and I would also say they usually do better with LBs and even running backs. The difference in a 5* versus a 4* is very small, but games are won (and lost) with very small differences...
