They are probably going to score 40 plus against an SEC opponent. They look fine. You are seeing things you want to see. Not reality. I doubt Saban was thinking he was going to post 7 every offensive possession.
I am confident they aren't meeting his standard on tackling or offensive execution.
People like you watch scoreboards and can't get any deeper than that. People like Saban establish standards and expect them to be met regardless of how many points they are ahead.
