Thank God al.com was there to sort it out for us. This is how it was reported.
Photo caption on the front page: Auburn guard Hasina Muhammad (0) goes after Alabama guard Breanna Hayden (5) after Hayden hit her as the refs ands Auburn guard Kiani Parker (22) attempt to hold her back during Alabama's women's basketball game with rival Auburn, Thursday, Jan. 22, 2015, at Foster Auditorium in Tuscaloosa, Ala.

And from the article:
Video of the incident shows Hayden getting tangled with Muhammad on a made free throw. Hayden threw a punch, connecting with Muhammad's jaw before the Tiger ran after Hayden. An official attempted to separate the two, but she fell to the Foster Auditorium floor.
Muhammad connected with a punch after reaching Hayden at the Alabama bench. Knight lunged at Muhammad after she connected on the punch.
Let me see if I got it right.
The Auburn player "went after." The Auburn player "connected with a punch." The Auburn player "reached." The Auburn player "goes after." The Auburn player "ran after." The Auburn player "connected (again)"
The Alabama player "hit." The Alabama player "threw a punch." The Alabama player "lunged."
There are 16 photos of Auburn players brawling at the Alabama bench or talking after the fight. Two of them are of the Auburn player leaving the floor after being ejected. .
There are ZERO pictures of the Alabama player throwing the first punch. There are four total pictures of the Alabama bench post-fight. One picture of the two Alabama players being ejected.
Nah. There's no bias, spin or slant at all. Fuck al.com.
Those damn thug Auburn women.
