Texas-Baylor get in mass scuffle
Posted December 5th, 2015
WACO — What a way to end a first quarter.
Baylor was down to its fourth-string quarterback, Lynx Hawthorne. And Hawthorne, a backup receiver, had just thrown an interception. Duke Thomas had the pick.
Hawthorne tackled Thomas near the Texas sideline. And that’s when the fireworks started.
Texas quarterback Tyrone Swoopes was called for unsportsmanlike conduct.

More reaction:
Wildest first quarter of the year without question. And they've only played a quarter. This is very, very intense.

Where are the Baylor coaches? Half your team ran across the field. Bears are melting down with a Sugar Bowl on the line. Ejections possible.

Wow. Fights breaking out after Duke Thomas' interception return and hard Baylor tackle.
