Lacrosse!  Yeah, that makes sense.

It actually makes a lot of sense. The Capital One Cup is an ESPN creation and ESPN broadcasts a lot more lacrosse relative to other non-revenue sports.

Maybe Stanford ought to opt out of this TV-network & commercial-company-pushed abomination.   Stanford could simply say that the COC configured the scoring system to weight sports for their own financial gain and wants no part of it unless and until it represents all sports fairly.   By not showing up at their awards, Stanford will perhaps forever stop this and any future commercially motivated schemes of this sort.  At their awards commercial ceremony, the COC will likely have to explain why Stanford declined the award, and justify their scoring system.  Or fold up their tent.

Of course, much of this could apply to the Ty-D bowl games, and to a lesser extent, the Director's Cup.   But maybe it would be good to take a stance now, before the Director's Cup treats the sports more unequally.
