Kentucky fan forgives Rick Pitino for 1992 Duke loss after Malachi Moreno's buzzer beater at LSU

Posted Feb 7, 2026
Some losses stick with you. For the current generation of Kentucky basketball fans, that’s the 2015 loss to the Wisconsin Badgers. For anyone old enough to remember, it’s also the 1992 loss to Duke. Malachi Moreno‘s buzzer-beater at LSU was so similar to Christian Laettner’s in the 1992 Elite Eight that one Kentucky fan gave up his 34-year grudge vs. Rick Pitino. (Kentucky Sports Radio)
