In overtime of a heated contest between Baylor and Texas on Monday night, Isaiah Taylor and Royce O’Neale got locked up when both went for a loose ball. O’Neale elbowed Taylor in the confusion, and Taylor took exception to it. Benches cleared and madness ensued, but no one seemed to throw a punch.

In the aftermath, seven players were ejected not for shoving in the scrum, but leaving the bench; John Heard, Johnathan Motley and Ish Wainwright were ejected for Baylor. Cameron Ridley, Connor Lammert, Kendal Yancy, and Prince Ibeh of Texas were also ejected.

To add to the mounting insanity of this game, seconds later, Isaiah Taylor won the game for Texas with a buzzer-beating runner in the dying seconds.
