Kentucky matched its largest comeback of the Mark Pope era tonight, rallying from an 18-point deficit to beat LSU 75-74 on a Malachi Moreno buzzer-beater. It was an incredible shot that will go down in program history, a needed moment of joy after yet another ugly first half. Had Moreno missed, we’d be focusing on the latter and how Kentucky dug itself into a hole it couldn’t get out of. Mark Pope said the fact that it went in is proof that this team isn’t giving up, even when things have looked so very, very bad at times.
