STILLWATER — Oklahoma State University police say one student was sent to the hospital after he got into a fist fight with his roommate over football.

Capt. David Altman says the students are roommates in Davis Hall. He tells a local newspaper that the pair got into argument over the value of a football as a sport.

Altman says the victim was punched several times by his roommate after the victim said football was a stupid sport.

He was taken to Stillwater Medical Center, where he was treated and released.
