Notes

  1. ^ The formal nickname for women's teams is "Razorbacks", and the university consistently refers to the women's teams as the Razorbacks or Razorback women. The terms "Lady Razorbacks" and "Lady'Backs" have been abandoned by the university.
  2. ^ Although the school now prefers to use "Little Rock" for its athletic programs, and the NCAA has also adopted this usage, national media have yet to fully recognize this change.
  3. ^ The school is also commonly referred to by its short name Cal, or, less commonly, as Cal–Berkeley.
  4. ^ The Long Beach State baseball team is unofficially called "Dirtbags", and the school recognizes the nickname.
  5. ^ The school and the Big West Conference brand the school as CSUN, which has wide media usage but is not yet used by the NCAA.
  6. ^ The school is increasingly branding its athletic program as simply "Charleston". The NCAA and national sports media are inconsistent, using "Charleston" for basketball but "College of Charleston" for other sports.
  7. ^ Charleston Southern's women's golf team is known as the Lady Bucs
  8. ^ Although the school brands itself as Detroit Mercy, it is still usually referred to as Detroit.
  9. ^ The school has long branded itself as ETSU, but media usage is inconsistent.
  10. ^ The school has long branded itself as EKU, but media usage is inconsistent.
  11. ^ The women's gymnastics team is known as "Gym Dogs".
  12. ^ Most of the university is in Cambridge, but some academic buildings and almost all athletic facilities, including the football stadium, lie in Boston.
  13. ^ In July 2013, all Hawaiʻi men's teams adopted the nickname of "Rainbow Warriors". This reversed a 2000 policy that resulted in different men's teams using "Rainbow Warriors", "Warriors", and "Rainbows". All women's teams continue to use "Rainbow Wahine", although the beach volleyball team has mostly deprecated that nickname in favor of "SandBows".
  14. ^ Although UIC is the school's preferred athletic name, national sports media generally use "Illinois-Chicago" in score listings and on first reference.
  15. ^ The school brands itself as UIW, but media usage is inconsistent, largely because the school is still new to Division I.
  16. ^ Before the 2019–20 school year, LIU operated separate NCAA athletic programs at each of its two principal campuses. LIU Brooklyn was a Division I member, while LIU Post was in Division II. The two athletic programs merged in July 2019, with the merged program inheriting Brooklyn's Division I membership.
  17. ^ The school brands its athletic program solely as "Louisiana", with no city identifier, but it is still usually referred to as Louisiana–Lafayette.
  18. ^ The use of "Tigers" or "Lady Tigers" depends on whether a given sport is sponsored for both men and women at the varsity level. In sports that are sponsored for both sexes, women's teams are known as "Lady Tigers". Sports that are sponsored only for one sex use "Tigers".
  19. ^ National sports media generally use "Loyola–Chicago", "Loyola (Chicago)", or "Loyola (Illinois)" to distinguish this school from others with the Loyola name. The NCAA now uses "Loyola–Chicago".
  20. ^ The school brands itself as LMU, but media generally disregard this.
  21. ^ While national media generally use "Massachusetts", the shortened "UMass" is in wide usage, especially in Massachusetts itself.
  22. ^ National media sometimes use "Miami (Florida)" or "Miami (FL)" to distinguish it from Miami University in Ohio.
  23. ^ National media usually use "Miami (Ohio)" or "Miami (OH)" to distinguish it from the University of Miami in Florida.
  24. ^ National media generally use "Mississippi" in score listings and on first reference, but will frequently use "Ole Miss" on later reference. The school athletic department prefers "Ole Miss".
  25. ^ After long insisting on being known as UMKC, the school changed its branding to the commonly used Kansas City in 2019. At the same time, it changed its nickname from the traditional "Kangaroos" to the long-used short form of "Roos".
  26. ^ The women's basketball team is known as the "Lady Griz", but all other women's teams use the "Grizzlies" nickname.
  27. ^ The baseball team is nicknamed "Thoroughbreds" instead of "Racers".
  28. ^ The school has rebranded its athletic program as "Omaha". Both its all-sports league, The Summit League, and its ice hockey league, the National Collegiate Hockey Conference, follow this usage, as does the NCAA. National media, however, still tend to use "Nebraska–Omaha".
  29. ^ The men's basketball team is nicknamed "Runnin' Rebels"; the women's basketball team is "Lady Rebels"; all other teams, whether men's or women's, are simply "Rebels".
  30. ^ The school brands itself as UNCG, though national sports media will refer to it was UNC Greensboro, which is not preferred by the athletic department.
  31. ^ From November 9, 2011 through November 18, 2015, North Dakota had no athletic nickname. In 2011, the state's governor Jack Dalrymple signed a bill into law that allowed the school to drop its former nickname of Fighting Sioux, ending a long-standing controversy over its use. Under the law, UND was not allowed adopt a new nickname until after January 2015.[2] On November 18, 2015, the school announced Fighting Hawks was the new nickname chosen by the students/alumni.[3]
  32. ^ The school has branded itself as UNI almost from being renamed in 1967, but media generally disregard this.
  33. ^ The school brands itself with its legal name of The Ohio State University, but it was denied a trademark on "The".
  34. ^ The Penn State women's basketball team is nicknamed "Lady Lions", but all other women's teams use "Nittany Lions".
  35. ^ The school also widely uses its historic short form of "Pitt".
  36. ^ In 2013, the school changed its athletic brand to "St. Francis Brooklyn" in an attempt to distinguish itself from other schools of that name, notably the fellow Northeast Conference member in Pennsylvania. National media usually use "St. Francis (New York)" instead.
  37. ^ National media usually use "St. Francis (Pennsylvania)" to distinguish it from other schools of that name, notably the fellow Northeast Conference school of the same name in Brooklyn.
  38. ^ Other schools in the U.S. have this name, but national media do not add a location identifier to it, since it is the only "St. John's" whose athletic teams compete in NCAA Division I.
  39. ^ Although there are other schools with this name in the U.S., none of the others are members of NCAA Division I. Therefore, national media refer to it as "Saint Joseph's" (preferred usage) or "St. Joseph's", without a regional identifier, or just St. Joe's/Saint Joe's.
  40. ^ Although the school prefers to use "USC Upstate", national media often use "South Carolina Upstate".
  41. ^ The school is also frequently referred to as SEMO.
  42. ^ The school accepts either "Southern California" or "USC" for athletics purposes; national news media generally use "USC".
  43. ^ Historically, USC women's teams were known as the "Women of Troy". The school now accepts either "Trojans" or "Women of Troy" for use with women's teams.
  44. ^ Although the school prefers to use "SIUE", national media often use "SIU Edwardsvile". The NCAA now uses "SIUE".
  45. ^ The school brands itself as SUU.
  46. ^ The school brands itself as SFA.
  47. ^ In 2017–18, Tennessee allowed women's teams to use the school's historic women's nickname of "Lady Volunteers", reversing a change it had made in 2015–16 that saw only the women's basketball team retain the "Lady" designation. Since then, Tennessee has moved toward a model similar to that used by LSU and Texas Tech, with women's teams in sports sponsored for both sexes using "Lady Volunteers" and other women's teams using "Volunteers".
  48. ^ UTRGV has six campuses within its service area, but its athletic program is based from its Edinburg campus. The school inherited its athletic program from the University of Texas–Pan American, located in Edinburg and merged into UTRGV in 2013, with UTRGV beginning full operation in 2015.
  49. ^ The use of "Red Raiders" or "Lady Raiders" depends on whether a given sport is sponsored for both men and women at the varsity level. In sports that are sponsored for both sexes, women's teams are known as "Lady Raiders". Sports that are sponsored only for one sex use "Red Raiders".
  50. ^ The academy now uses "Army West Point" for marketing purposes, though national media simply use "Army".
  51. ^ The men's basketball team is nicknamed "Runnin' Utes", and the women's gymnastics team is nicknamed "Red Rocks".
  52. ^ The school's formal name is Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, but it uses "Virginia Tech" in all but the most formal contexts.
  53. ^ The school prefers "Green Bay" for its athletic program, and accepts "GB". National sports media were slow to adopt this, generally using "Wisconsin-Green Bay", but the school's preferred usage has become generally accepted since 2011.
  54. ^ The school officially uses "Milwaukee" for its athletic program, and accepts "UWM". As with Green Bay, national media were slow to accept this, preferring "Wisconsin–Milwaukee", but "Milwaukee" is now seeing wide media use.
  55. ^ Accepted as future member by the Northeast Conference in September 2018.
  56. ^ Accepted as future member by the Atlantic Sun Conference in June 2019.

  61. ^ Accepted as future member by the Summit League in October 2019.
