While this is focused on Auburn-Alabama, the statement about Tuberville not running it up on people is false.

He did it to LSU. In 1999, Auburn won 41-7 and smoked cigars on the field at Tiger Stadium, something LSU never forgot. In 2000, Saban's first year at LSU, Auburn won 34-17, scoring a TD with 3 seconds left in the game. Saban stared his arse down from across the field.
It's why he kicked the onside kick to start the 2001 game.
