Hey Husker Fellas
« on: May 27, 2020, 09:34:32 PM »
On UNL's main logo....for forever, it was the big, red block N.  Not the helmet one, but a block-N.  Then in the mid-90s, it switched to the block N with the black Huskers written across it.

Is there a certain year it went away from that one back to the block N by itself?  Did it ever change back?  Was it maybe a Frost thing? 

Any info would help, thanks.  The logo site everyone uses has the black script up to 2012, then a red script in front of the block N until 2015.  

I'm just checking if that's the consensus.

Nebraska's colors are scarlet and cream.  I don't understand it when the coaches and fans wear black along with the scarlet.

The changeover year from "NU" to "N" on Nebraska's helmets was 1970.  But in the 1971 GOTC there were still a few Husker helmets showing "NU."  Maybe just some of the hundreds of walk-ons on the sideline wearing helmets from two years earlier.
