The Bulldogs lost 79-70.
Per SI.com, UAB's Hakeem Baxter attempted to punch Louisiana Tech's Jacobi Boykins, which started the altercation. But most of the ejections were due to players leaving the bench, which is against NCAA rules.
UAB had just six players by the final buzzer, but it was enough to hold on for the win.
On Friday, Baxter and Boykins were suspended for one game apiece, per ESPN.com.
"We have reviewed the incident in last night's Louisiana Tech vs. UAB men's basketball game," Conference USA said in a statement, per ESPN. "Although the majority of the individuals involved were attempting to diffuse the situation, what occurred last night was unacceptable."
It is unclear at this time if any other players will be disciplined as a result of the incident.
