In October 2007, Tennessee actually passed Alabama in total wins to become the winningest SEC program of all time. Alabama's lead in the series between the two schools had also dwindled to only five games, 43-38-1.
Today, a mere 15 years later, Alabama has an 86-game lead on the Vols in total wins, and leads the series between the two schools 58-38-1.

Was Oct '07 when "texbookgate" forfeits were announced?

Yep. That's what allowed UT to take the lead by, if I recall correctly, one game. The very next game Alabama played after the penalties were announced was a 41-7 demolition of Tennessee, and we haven't looked back since.

Careful Bama. If you poke Tennessee, it can end pretty nasty

I mean the Atlanta braves got pissed and threw 30k beer bottles onto their own field but god damn throwing mustard bottles is something I still can’t quite get over

Throwing beer bottles is a bad look but can be somewhat justified since people bought beer at the game to drink before losing their cool and making bad decisions.
But Tennessee fans intentionally brought those mustard bottles with the intent to throw them at people.
It's similar to the difference between pre-meditated murder and killing someone while unexpectedly getting into a dangerous situation.

Did they? Or did they just grab whatever was closest to them and hurl it on the field. I'm guessing the mustard bottle was by the concession stand, and some kid picked it up and hurdled it. The weird thing was the golf ball, not the mustard bottle. No one brings a mustard bottle to a game and says "you know if things pop off in the 4th quarter and fans are throwing their drinks on the field, I'm gonna toss this bottle of mustard."
