Note to the entire Football Bowl Subdivision, and the Big 12 Conference in particular: Stop scheduling North Dakota State.

The Bison have won a Football Championship Subdivision-record 25 in a row altogether, taking the past three FCS national championships, and have won five in a row against FBS competition.

Kansas in 2010. Minnesota in 2011. Colorado State in 2012. Kansas State in 2013. Saturday's win came against Iowa State, the last FBS team to defeat NDSU – and this victory was never close, with the Bison pulling away with 17 unanswered second-half points in a 34-17 win.

NDSU outgained ISU 503 yards to 253. The Bison rolled up 299 yards rushing on 43 carries, controlling the time of possession for seconds shy of 37 minutes. The Cyclones, meanwhile, averaged 3.9 yards per carry, 4.9 yards per attempt and committed two turnovers.

FCS? You wouldn't know it.

— North Dakota State has five wins against the FBS since the start of the 2010 season. Kansas, on the other hand, has just six.

— The Bison own the nation's fourth-longest active winning streak against FBS competition, trailing just Florida State (15), Michigan State (10) and UTSA (six).

— NDSU now holds an 8-3 record against the FBS. Only one other current FCS program, Delaware, has won more than half of its game against FBS opposition.

— The program's active 25-game streak is the longest in the FBS and FCS, topping the Seminoles' current streak – best in the FBS – by nine games, with FSU set to take on Oklahoma State on Saturday night.

— Saturday's win against Iowa State was particularly impressive: NDSU entered the opener not only needing to replace 12 starters from last year's team but its wildly successful former coach, Craig Bohl, now at Wyoming.

NDSU won't face an FBS team in 2015, giving college football's top level a one-year breather, before heading to Iowa on Sept. 17, 2016.

Hawkeyes: You're on notice.
