Hear his call of the LSU-Auburn game in 1995.

He was only 29. Very impressive


That isn't Bramblett. It's Jim Fyffe. Bramblett didn't start doing football until around 2003, when Fyffe suddenly died from a brain aneurysm.

Rod was a great play by play announcer for Auburn. I enjoyed listening to his call of a clip of the last 6 minutes of the 2018 LSU game. His "Quick Six" call in the Iron Bowl will always be remembered. I hope LSU is well represented at his memorial service. Prayers to his family. A tragedy like this really puts rivalries and sports in the proper perspective.

You seem obsessed with other people’s finances. I don’t sell because I don’t have to. I don’t need the money. Apparently you do and stalk. You have no idea what I can and cannot do nor will you so mind your own poor arse business.

Was he doing the play by play this week at the SEC tourney? If so, that crazy wild pitch/error walk off play was the last call he ever made. I would like to hear it. God bless his family.

Okay, it’s not Rod Bramblett, but it wasn’t Jim Fyffe either.

So sad. The Wisconsin coach too who lost his wife and one child while surviving with another child. Can happen to anyone in the blink of an eye. Sad for the Auburn family.

Rear ended accidents RARELY kill anyone unless the car hit gets pushed into oncoming traffic.


It was a 2 car accident: Bramlett's car and the kid's jeep.

Oncoming traffic would have been more than 2 cars.
