Bucknell sposors 26 varsity sports. I suspect you missed the distinction between indoor and outdoor T&F (M & W). If correct, can probably add two to the totals for the other schools as well. Not a terribly important distinction, but when you hear the varsity sports counts for other schools, they report these as distinct sports.
BU's count was at 28 prior to dropping Wrestling and mens crew to club status as a part of the plan to achieve compliance with Title IX. At the time this decision was made, the school indicated they could not afford to continue to add womens teams to achieve proportionality.
