Ndamukong Suh, who considers himself a student of Nebraska football history, got a lesson in 1960s Cornhusker fashion. Suh and teammate Roy Helu Jr., right, on Friday modeled the pants, helmets and jerseys of the 1962 Huskers. That team holds a special place in the annals of Nebraska football because it was the first one coached by Bob Devaney. The seventh game in 1962 — a 16-7 loss to Missouri — started Nebraska’s ongoing NCAA-record sellout streak, which will hit 300 when Louisiana-Lafayette visits Sept. 26. The Huskers will wear the throwback uniforms that night to commemorate the milestone. There is no familiar block “N” on the helmets, which didn’t come along until 1970.
