Seven ejected as No. 14 Baylor upset

— -- Seven players were ejected in overtime of  Texas' 61-59 win over No. 14 Baylor Monday night after they left their respective benches to join a shoving match between two opposing players.

Baylor players John Heard, Ishmail Wainright and Johnathan Motley, and Texas players Kendal Yancy, Connor Lammert, Prince Ibeh and Cameron Ridley all were kicked out of the game after a bench-clearing skirmish that started as a scuffle between Texas point guard Isaiah Taylor and Baylor forward Royce O'Neale.

Taylor and O'Neale battled for a loose ball with 1:57 to play in overtime. A frustrated Taylor rose from the floor after he was hit in the mouth with what appeared to be an incidental elbow by O'Neale during the tussle for the loose ball. Then, Texas assistant Chris Ogden rushed to midcourt and attempted to separate the players but within seconds, multiple players from both squads had joined the ruckus.

According to NCAA rules, "leaving the bench area during a fight situation as bench personnel but not participating in the fight" results in an automatic ejection.

Taylor, whose lip was bleeding after the skirmish, scored the game-winning floater in the final seconds of the game. Myles Turner blocked Kenny Chery's shot on the other end to secure the victory for Texas, a team on the NCAA tournament bubble.
