We are in the offseason, but it does not mean the Alabama-Auburn rivalry stops.

On Tuesday, Auburn University shared a video to Twitter of its new football facility. While its head coach, Bryan Harsin, is prepared to go to work, Levi Wallace decided to troll the Tigers. As a former Crimson Tide defensive back, Wallace played under Nick Saban from 2014 to 2017.

His career started as a walk-on, but Wallace grew to be one the best cornerbacks of the Saban era.

In 2017, he posted 48 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, two sacks, 15 pass breakups (team-high), three interceptions, and one touchdown. Wallace helped Alabama secure a College Football Playoff National Championship that year.

Despite not being selected in the 2018 NFL Draft, Wallace signed an undrafted free agent deal with the Buffalo Bills and has become a starter.

He quote tweeted Auburn’s video with the caption: “Still gonna suck … nice facility though.

Wallace won two national titles at Alabama.

His Alma mater will face the Tigers at Jordan-Hare Stadium in the fall.
