They do get plenty of credit, but why would you think a southern rock band would get as much credit as a hard rock band? One genre is far more popular than the other and likely to appeal to a much larger audience, also Led Zep have influenced more artists than the Allmans ever could.
Comparing the Allmans to the Rolling Stones would be a better comparison, as both bands had a much heavier emphasis on American roots music, whilst Led Zeppelin only really focused properly on the blues angle.
