PHOTOS: LSU men’s basketball upsets Kentucky on buzzer-beater for 2nd straight ranked win

The Tigers held on for a statement home win against the Wildcats on Wednesday night.

The LSU men’s basketball team is putting something together down the stretch this season.

The Tigers recorded their second straight victory over a ranked opponent with a stunning upset against Kentucky at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center.

Trailing by one in the final seconds, a potential game-winner from [autotag]Jordan Wright[/autotag] was blocked. But he secured his own rebound, lobbed the ball up to [autotag]Tyrell Ward [/autotag]in desperation, and Ward responded with a put-back buzzer-beater to lift LSU to a 75-74 win.

The Tigers move to 14-12 on the season and are now just one game below .500 in SEC play. They’ll look to get back to even as Mississippi State comes to town on Saturday.

In the meantime, here are the photos from Wednesday night’s win.
