Football Helmet Help - What Team? College? High School?

[helmets]

Was on display in a Sports Bar for years with a bunch of college football helmets. The arrow head might have been white at one time prior to the bar "atmosphere" residue. Any ideas?

Possible Northeastern Oklahoma State University. Correct colors, mascot used to be "Redmen" NSU announced on May 23, 2006 that they would be dropping "Redmen" in favor of a new mascot to represent the school. Although the "Redmen" name was not deemed to be hostile or abusive towards Native Americans by the NCAA, restrictions connected to the use of American Indian nicknames could have affected future NSU athletic competitions had NSU not taken the initiative to comply before the Redmen name became an issue. The university announced its new athletic name as the RiverHawks on Nov. 14, 2006.

I haven't searched for image matches but I'm throwing this out as a possibility.

Yup. Excellent work.
"During the 1960s, the team used plain silver helmets with a single green stripe; during the 1970s, a switch to green helmets was made, and a new logo, a white arrowhead containing the letters "NE", was used. In 1979, the "NE" was replaced by an "NSU" logo similar to the one used by the team during the early 2000s, still inside a white arrowhead."
