UTA is down four sports and missed the Bubas Cup championship by two points twice in four years.
You guys could compete if you wanted. However, winning in the Olympic sports just isn’t a priority, so you guys finish in the bottom half.
Hard to argue that point. Though it does depend which sports a school does not sponsor as to how many points are left on the table. But overall you observation is correct.
Haven't been paying attention much to this thread, so I'm late with the response.
We have or will likely finish higher than App in:
1. Both Soccers
2. Probably MBB
3. Men's golf barring a massive upset
4. Probably baseball and softball
5. Women's Tennis
When you don't count the 16 different running sports where a lot of the same athletes compete in that's 7 of the 12 Sun Belt sports we compete with App in that we'll finish higher in.
Last year it was 9 of the 12 (IIRC) and App still finished ahead of us in the all-sports rankings. I don't know where the idea comes from our non-revenue sports suck compared to App's. Maybe the way Bubba Cup points are calculated just sucks?
