and two of those Top 10 and one of those Top 5 losses were last year. So before last year's mess, Tuberville was 5-1 vs Top 5 and 9-4 vs Top 10 at Auburn. Probably as good a record against Top 5/10 as any other coach in the country.
It's more of Auburn able to win the biggest games but lost some they should have won, although I'm not sure of AU's big-game reputation prior to Tuberville.
