Only thing I can think of is Gator refers to a bloodline that is the Alligator line of dogs.  Plummer's Ch Alligator.  But still real dogmen dont call them Gator Pits. 
G. Hammonds had a lot of Alligator dogs  are Plummers Ch Alligator bloodlines his old Rufus dog , the Pig dog he owned, all the Andy and Andy L dogs come down from the old Plummers Ch Alligator dogs.

I dont know why people call any dog with a big head a Gator Pit ?

Also there was a dog name Llyods Ch Gator that come down from Gr Ch Boomrang bloodlines but never heard any real dog man call it Gator Pit . 

That is just  slang that people use is all it is .  Atleast it is slang to me are any real dogman that owned pit bulls.
