Tragedy struck the Auburn family on Saturday evening, as longtime play-by-play man Rod Bramblett and his wife, Paula, were killed in a two-car accident.

Bramblett was 52 years old and his wife was 53. Bramblett was an Auburn graduate and called football and men’s basketball games since 2003.

As you can expect, reactions to the devastating news have been pouring in all night, from commissioner Greg Sankey to some SEC athletic directors to notable media members. Here’s a look at a few of the tributes to Bramblett:

Auburn will likely do something to honor the memory of the longtime broadcaster, but no plans have been announced as of now.
