After softball dropped two games to UF in the WCWS there was some discussion on the status of UA Athletics in non-revenue sports. Obviously we represent the elite in some sports such as football and gymnastics, but we are also in the middle of the pack of worse in others. When I looked at the Capital One Cup standings, I was quite surprised to see that we were not listed as one of the top athletic departments in the nation. With as much emphasis as we place on sports in Alabama and indeed at UA I was shocked. We seem to have great facilities with the exception of maybe swimming and track and field. Certainly in other rankings (such as revenue) our athletic department ranks near the top (behind only Texas I think). Nevertheless, take a look: http://www.capitalonecup.com/standings.html
