Texas guard Isaiah Taylor landed a floater in the paint with just 4.8 seconds left in overtime to seal a 61-59 win over No. 14 Baylor, but the shot was overshadowed by a late scuffle.

Seven players were ejected for jumping in off the bench during the fight, and both teams continued jawing at each other after the game and had to be separated.

Taylor finished the game with seven points on 3-of-6 shooting, while guard Demarcus Holland scored 12 points off the bench to lead the team.

Texas forward Jonathan Holmes hit a 3-pointer with 1:08 remaining in the second half to tie the game at 51, forcing overtime.

The Bears fell to 22-8 with the loss, while the Longhorns are now 18-12.
