The real reason is that his defenses have revolutionized the use of pattern reading coverages against the increasingly complex multiple offenses in the college game.
He didn't invent pattern reading, but many of the aggressive zone schemes that you see out there are byproducts of or are heavily influenced by Saban's defenses.

Yeah you are right. Couple the pattern reading with the front 7 applying pressure out of multiple packages and you get quick, indecisive decisions from the quarterback resulting in an easy day for the secondary. Hence why Saban is so adamant about how his defenses "affect" the quarterback.
