We are familiar with "Hogs" being substituted for "Razorbacks" (or "Swine" by their detractors), but there are a lot of other shortened or substituted nicknames for team mascots. Vanderbilt is the "Dores." Coastal Carolina is the "Chants" (short for Chanticleers). Obviously, the Navy Midshipmen are the Middies. UMKC is the Roos (Kangaroos). Lots of others could be named - all part of the color of college athletics.
