TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Kyle Fogg had 23 points and scored on a hard drive in overtime that nearly set off a brawl, lifting Arizona to a hard-fought 81-73 win over Oregon State on Thursday night.

Oregon State (11-6, 1-4 Pac-12) forced overtime after Ahmad Starks scored 10 of his 14 points in the final 3:16 of regulation. Arizona (12-5, 3-1) took control in overtime, going up six after a rebound slam by Nick Johnson and Fogg's drive with 1:12 left.

Fogg ran into Oregon State's Jared Cunningham while celebrating the basket, setting off a near melee that had players from both teams pushing each other and Wildcats coach Sean Miller shoving his players back to the bench.

Arizona's Kyryl Natyazhko and Oregon State's Joe Burton were ejected for leaving the bench. Fogg fouled out after being hit with a technical foul and Cunningham was also gone after getting personal and technical fouls.
