A dead longhorn was found on the lawn of an off-campus Oklahoma State
University fraternity a day before the Cowboys face off against the
University of Texas Longhorns in the Big 12 championship football game.

Police in Stillwater, Okla., are investigating.

The Oklahoma State FarmHouse Fraternity said in a statement that no one in
their chapter was involved in the incident Friday morning in which a
"deceased carcass of a longhorn cow had been discarded in the front yard
of our chapter house, branded with a phrase referencing our chapter in an
inappropriate matter."

The chapter is just as "sickened and surprised by this incident as our
peers on campus," the statement said, adding that "it is disheartening to
see the disregard for proper animal welfare."

Oklahoma State University said it is "appalled at the disturbing display
of animal cruelty that occurred overnight." The school said the Office of
Student Support and Conduct is also investigating.

The 11-1 Texas Longhorns sit in first place in the Big 12 Conference
heading into Saturday's championship game against the 9-3 Oklahoma State
Cowboys, who are in second place in the conference.
