Depends on the field. my field comes to mine (software development).
If two people have the same backgrounds, and one does not have a degree, it's very likely they are better at what they do, as there path to get to where they were was much harder.
If I was looking at people with 3 years experience, I would most likely take the guy with the degree. If it was 15, I would take the guy without it.
