Still five behind UCLA in total team collegiate national championships:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NC...mpionships

Apparently for a period of time, a lot a sports, especially many women's sports weren't sponsored by the NCAA. Most are now included such as swimming, water polo, cross country, softball, soccer, etc. though the earlier titles are not included in the NCAA list.

Once you go beyond the list of official NCAA team championships, there is an element of judgment about which non-NCAA championships you decide to include on your list.

The Wikipedia page linked in this post starts with NCAA championships, then adds football championships, AIAW championships, and championships in selected other sports. But it also omits some sports. 

For example, the linked list includes IRA men's rowing championships. But it does not include IRA lightweight rowing championships. Stanford has won 8 women's lightweight rowing championships. If you were to add lightweight rowing to the linked list, you would get a different result.

As another example, the linked list includes women's equestrian championships because the NCAA has designated women's equestrian as an "emerging sport" for women. But women's rugby is not included, even though it is also an NCAA-designated "emerging sport." Stanford has won 4 women's rugby championships (USA Rugby Division 1). Those aren't included on this list.

There are other examples of judgment calls on this list. The linked list is one possible way to count championships, but it's nothing close to an official, comprehensive list.
