Trailing the play, De Sousa flew in for a block, then immediately stood over Gordon in an apparent taunt.<\/p>\n<p>Seconds later, both benches cleared, punches were thrown, and the resulting melee spilled off the court, into a press area and seating area. The entire benches for both teams were ejected and only the 10 players on the court were allowed back, while the Wildcats shot a pair of technical foul shots.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Crazy scene at the end of Kansas-Kansas State game.<\/p>\n<p>Full coverage from <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JayhawkSlant?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JayhawkSlant<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RivalsKSO?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RivalsKSO<\/a> coming all night <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/eUJ5GriI0m\">pic.twitter.com\/eUJ5GriI0m<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Rivals (@Rivals) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Rivals\/status\/1219813576719917058?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 22, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The final, 81-60 win for Kansas was anything but what has been talked about since the brawl ensued.<\/p>\n<p>Many media personalities, coaches, and athletes have been among those who have weighed in on the fracas.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">There were many actions that escalated this.

And perhaps unsurprisingly, the sentiment towards the brawl has been overwhelmingly negative, at 83.8 percent.<\/p>\n<p>A look at the words and phrases being used in social media posts can be seen in a word cloud generated by Social Studio. This includes &#8220;massive,&#8221; &#8220;breaks,&#8221; and &#8220;brawl.&#8221; The latter is confirmation of the keyword choice used in this search, as it has been used most commonly to describe the events that transpired at the end of the game.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1214\" src=\"https:\/\/utccismcc.utk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2020\/01\/brawl-word-cloud-300x143.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>What hasn&#8217;t been accounted for in analytic data, but revealed in tweets recognized by Social Studio are a number of racist remarks made. While many of the players involved were African-American, white players also took part in the melee.
