It's not only drivers but they typically update the boot ROM on the new
machines to only recognize the new system which makes this very very
difficult and really not even worth trying.

AFAIK, the latest rev of MacBooks (late 2007 model, Santa Rosa
architecture, Intel GMA X3100 integrated video) only supports Leopard.

No Tiger drivers = no downgrade possible.

I haven't tested this but that's what everyone is saying.
