the greatest comeback ever!!! down 31 points with 15 mins to go!!! ONLY KENTUCKY COULD DO THIS!!! AND THEY DID...

Without a doubt, one of the best games EVER! I love being a Kentucky fan!

As a Kentucky fan I can say Rick Pitino is my favorite coach ever. I was a young man when Pitino left Kentucky for the NBA. I remember that day as if it were yesterday. It broke all the hearts in Kentucky when Rick left. Yes I love John Calipari but Pition holds a special place in my heart. Pitino brought us back from disaster to make us Champions again. But then again I'm old. All the fans today are young and they don't remember the dark days! God Bless You Pitino!

I haven't revisited this game since I watched it live as a kid. I didn't know it then, but now I realize I'm witnessed one of the greatest miracles in the history of sports.

My grandfather introduced me to the cats when I was about six year old, all the men in my family and there were a ton of them, all of us have always been for Kentucky and whoever's beating Tennessee!!! Now even at forty I still get just as tore up as the players and coaches when something bad happens...

I watched this again last night ,knowing the outcome I screamed and yelled as if it was being played right then and there .Honestly I remember watching it when it was played . Best game ,come back ,EVER !! Nothing like being in Ky and being a Kentucky fan !!

I will never forget this game. I almost turned the tv off and went to bed but decided that I was a true blue fan and, being in Michigan, hardly ever got to watch them play. So I stayed up and watched them from the edge of my bed and nearly woke my wife up a few times as they staged the greatest comeback of all time.

Man.....Does this bring back memories to an old man thats a life long cat fan. My dad and I turned the tv down and the radio up to listen to Cawood Ledford call this game. God I loved listening to Cawood. Nobody will ever call a game like he could. He was and is The Voice all others are measured by.

I will never forget this game as long as I live. Ever since this game I am never sure of the outcome of a game until the final buzzer. I even have this game on VHS, next to my wedding video.

Back when Rick Pitino was the greatest coach in basketball.

10:28 "HE HAS JUST KILLED KENTUCKY'S RALLY"...*easy layup

I remember wearing those shorts. I was 10 years old and I thought I was the slickest thing that ever pedaled a 10-speed.

those jerseys was one of my favorites we ever had i miss those jerseys and i miss rick pitino i love calipari to but rick pitino was special go BIG BLUE

No doubt that was the best comeback that ever existed in college basketball Billy Crystal said it best, simply marvelous

God I wish this type of basketball was played more. No one out to make highlights, or do some trendy thing to show off for the cameras, no egos, just two teams trying to beat each other.

I remember watching this crazy game. It was unfrigginbelievable. I saw a similar giant turnaround in person, although it wasn't as big a deficit as this one. Florida had a 38-22 lead on Mississippi State with around 15 or 16 minutes left in the game. But State turned a blowout one way into a blowout the other way by outscoring Florida 48-9 the rest of the game and beating them 70-47.

Travis ford = legend.

I was sharing a motel room with another soldier whom just happened to be an LSU fan, we were deployed working a snow storm as part of a NG team. He went to bed smug, thinking we had lost. I sat watching, thinking maybe, just maybe... Second half I was wide awake, knowing I had to get up and perform the next day, but lordy, my Cats were on the prowl. When we finally won, I was up and dancing in his bed, around 0100, screaming at him to get up and face it. I'll NEVER forget this game, it was truly amazing and one of the best college games I've ever seen. I did perform the next day, tired, but still riding the adrenaline of this game.

They were amazing to watch. I absolutely loved it. The way they played defense and the way they shared the ball on offense was truly breathtaking. I still get sick thinking about losing in that game. If Bogans had not hurt his ankle we would have won the title, I have no doubt. The 03 team will ALWAYS be one of my favorites.

I remember watching the first half of this game when I was 16. couldn't believe how bad they were getting schooled. Then comes the most epic comeback of all time. These guys had heart and Pitino was a great coach, maybe the best coach ever. Interested to see what he does with Iona next season.

You don't see basketball games like this anymore... too many fouls, few players can shoot threes... miss those days.

I've got this game on DVD. Just awesome! You can usually get it pretty cheap on Ebay. I was 15 years old and can remember watching this game live with my dad. He gave up and quit watching the game. I just said "You never know. Don't give up" I can remember running back and forth to his bedroom saying "They cut it to 15" "They cut it to 12" They cut it 8" "They cut it to 5" And with about 2 minutes left, I watched the ending sitting in the floor of my parents bedroom and going CRAZY! Only UK!

I am so pissed off I went to bed during this comeback. I did get to see the last McCarty 3 when my mom woke me up.

Travis Ford after the free throws😂 Loved that guy when I was a kid. I remember this game like it was yesterday.

As a UK fan this game STILL makes me nervous to watch LOL

If their 1996 game was defined by the first half half, this was defined by the second half.

Last night's game with LSU reminded me of this. We may not have been down by a ton like we were in this game but we drained our first 7 three-pointers in the second half. Reminded me of how we were draining 3's in the second half in this game.

20 years old i witnessed this comeback....it aint over till its over....GO BIG BLUE !

I remember this game, what great memories, what great defense unbelievable, greatest comeback in sports history second to Tom's comeback in the Super Bowl against the Falcons but this would be my pick next to it✌️💙

Oh Man! I remember watching this game!!! Dale Brown was so dejected! I loved it!!!

with this steal and score lsu goes up by 31 7:20

62-27 in the last 15 minutes or so....

It's still such a great memory. Thanks to both teams. What a wonderful effort on both sides.

No better feeling in sports than watching a bench celebrate prematurely, only to have their heart ripped from their chest.

At home too... biggest choke of all time. 62 points in 15 minutes is insanity. Is that Tony Delk for KU?

Thanks for uploading this. This game was absolutely amazing.

Patino and his press will always be legendary in big blue nation #BIGBLUENATION

I remember this game like yesterday. I was there with my friend and his Dad. We sat mid court right behind the announcers table wearing our UK hoodies. GOBBN! 💙💙💙💙

Miss these days I was only like 5 or 6 I remember this game though, but I wish college basketball was still this good and everyone wasn’t running off early for the nba,over seas, or g-league, and grown men were playing in college.

I remember watching this game as a kid ... screaming at the T.V. lol Classic.

I remember watching this game. I was 12 years old. Go Big Blue!

when someone asks 'what's the best team ever?" UK is the answer. if they ask, "who has won the most games?" UK is the answer. the most championships? we say,"We are 2nd best." best %? UK... and then ..best comeback ever!!!! UK LSU 1994 --GO BIG BLUE

Those were the Kentucky teams i lived and died 4, not the teams they have today.

WHEN YOUR PLAYERS ARE CONDITIONED MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY....THE END RESULT WILL ALWAYS BE A WIN!

These were the best Kentucky. Basketball uniforms

maybe the greatest game ever played by a team in regular season. LSU took it to them early but they never gave up. Jeff Bradsaw was unconscience!!!Delk, Mc Carty, Riddick, ALL of them were great!!

This.....is why we never give up on our UK team. GO BIG BLUE!

rememmber watching this with my grandfather. hated those shorts that season, glad they only wore them this one season

My grandfather used to come over to our house because he didn't have ESPN. He left and I went to bed when UK was down 25 or more in the 2nd half. When my dad woke me up the next morning he told me we came back and won, I couldn't believe it.

"I was worried about losing until I looked down the floor and saw Dale Brown. Then I knew we had a chance." -- Bob Knight

Pitino just belonged at Kentucky. He said leaving UK was the worst mistake he ever made,and I believe he meant it. After he left he is , he had very little success in the NBA and nothing but trouble in Louisville. He is a great coach, no doubt , but coming back to college coaching by taking the Louisville job is unforgivable. He left on the best of terms at UK, but when he sought and took the UL job, our most hated rival , that showed me and many in BBN that he is not very principled. I bet if he could turn the hands of time back, he would do it differently!

I came home from somewhere and turned on this game to find Kentucky down 31 in the second half. Decided to watch it anyway because train wrecks can be enjoyable on some level. Surprise of a lifetime!

gotta love the kentucky fan behind the bench who got excited on basically every highlight in the second half

My hometown library kept a VHS copy of this. Every time I went I'd look for it and check it out if it was available

One of the first UK games I remember. Amazing stuff

I watched this game with my father. Remember it well

I was in 5th grade when this game happened. I remember my dad going to bed in disgust when the 'cats were down 31. He came back down to the TV after hearing me yelling and saw (in disbelief) the ending of this game. I have a lot of love for Pitino (besides the title & final fours) because of games like this. And for all the UK fans who can't understand liking Rick, listen to his coaches show on 84whas during the season. Rick seems to reminisce about his years @ UK all the time. go cats

The 62 points UK scored in the final 15:30, added to the 86 they scored the very next time at LSU, 148 points in 35:30!! Incredible!

This game just proves why the cats are called the comeback cats. What a comeback!

LSU scored 47 points in the second half. and 23 points in the last 10 minutes. really, they did not go cold. Kentucky got extra possessions with the press and drained a boat load of threes. It took a while to elapse but LSU didn't help as much as you think. Kentucky still made mistakes.

coming from a uk fan, I think last years team should have watched this video after the injury to nerlens noel. they lost their fight and will to win, started becoming selfish, and they acted like their season was already over. Im too young to remember pitino but from vids of his coaching days he was a tremendous coach. That press is unbelievable, my highschool coach was a huge pitino fan and we ran the same press.

One of the best games I've ever seen, Go Big Blue!!!!🤘

I had got up from the tv and left the game in disgust! Then my dad called and said I think ya might wanna start watching!! What a comeback! GO CATS!!

Kentucky was trailing LSU 68-37 with a little under 16 minutes remaining in the game, and outscored LSU 62-27 for the remainder of the game. This game does not resemble an absolute, classic choke - as LSU scored at a respectable clip while Kentucky just went totally on fire. A classic choke would be the UNC-Miami game where UNC went on a 27-6 run in the last 10 minutes of the game, and never had the lead until the very end of the game. In that game, Miami just totally imploded. But make no mistake, I have watched tons and tons of these kinds of games, and in EVERY one of them there is that moment where the team whose lead is eroding displays a certain body language and/or there is a single moment that can be spotted where you know they are starting to have some doubt. In this game, a big moment was at 72-61 LSU with about 10 minutes to play, but when the score went to 82-74 LSU, that was when the noose was getting very tight around LSU's neck.

I can watch this all day long. Go cats!!!

25 years ago. Did not go to bed. Only one year did I turn the Cats off. 88-89 was too painful.

Kentucky score 57 points in the last 15 minutes down by 31 unbelievable!! Most Kentucky fans went to bed because this was the late game for the night. I went to work the next day telling everybody about it. Nobody could believe they pull off the biggest comeback in the history of the game.

those jerseys are badass, i wish they would bring those back for a game every now and then.

The best comeback win ever - and it was on the road!

And still a great coach.

I saw this live while my best friend and his dad got mad and missed the last half...

I LOVE the Kentucky uniforms from the time

That's what I call Cats spirit!

This was incredible.

LSU didn't go cold in the second half. UK got extra possessions and hit a boat load of 3's is what happened. LSU scored 27 points the final 15 minutes. that's not cold at all. take henderson's dagger inside of 3 minutes to put LSU up 9 for example. both teams were scorching for long stretches and then UK finally forced some turnovers.

Not no more! Drexel holds the record now. 2018 Drexel came back after being down by 34 points against Delaware. Drexel was down 53-19. Historical comeback.

Love this!!

It was an unbelievable comeback for sure. But the fact that we fell so far behind told.me that we would struggle in the NCAA tournament that year.

UK fans know that feeling too... will never forget 1992 Duke game :-)

Every time I watch this is WOW WOW WOW. If this doesn't indicate what KENTUCKY BASKETBALL is all about then nothing can.

Brad Nessler and Larry Connelly on the call. Still calling big Kentucky wins. Some things never change.

as ky fan from ky this awsome

Great comeback by Kentucky, credit where credit is due. But come on, LSU with a MASSIVE choke job...APPLESAUCE!!!

the kentucky bench looks almost as excited as a the bench of a cinderella team during the ncaa tournament

Best looking Kentucky uniforms EVER!!! In my opinion GO BIG BLUE🔵⚪️🏀☝️😼

I was there. I was sad.

The greatest game ever played...and certainly not the one with Christian Laetner cheating Kentucky out of a win.

God i loved this squad!

the crazy part is lsu did keep scoring, uk just scored more. a few turnovers here and there, and uk capitalized each and every time.

7:44 is where it starts

I was at that game, crazy as hell.

Still good after all of these years.

I went to school with Ronnie Henderson. We were in 2nd period together everyday when I was a freshman & he was a senior. It was like being in class with Michael Jordan. Henderson was called the most exciting player since Jordan. Jerry Tarkanian was coaching the Spurs & said if Henderson would skip college, he'd take him with their first pick. Before the injuries, he had a reported 45'' vertical leap which I witnessed first hand in a dunk contest between him, former Murrah and Alabama star and NBA player James "Hollywood" Robinson and Ronnie's teammate, the late, great Jesse Pate. As you can see here, as much as I worship Michael Jordan, MJ never could shoot as well as Henderson. Good genes considering he's Chris Jackson's (Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf) cousin.

That was awesome 😊 BBN

If Duke done that ESPN would show it every day and once on Sunday

Those UK Jerseys have early 90s written all over them

I kept laughing at that one UK fan in the corner that was going berserk on every shot made during the comeback. This is definitely one of the greatest games in UK basketball history.

Still smiling in 2020 :)

Kentucky yeah can't wait to see em again this year

I watched this whole video. Wish I could have seen it. :(
