North Dakota State at Iowa Hawkeyes (Saturday/12:00 pm)

Five-time defending FCS national champion North Dakota State heads to Iowa on Saturday, hoping to extend its winning streak against Power Five teams to five game in a streak that dates back to 2010.

The Hawkeyes made light work of Iowa State last weekend, knocking off the Cyclones 42-3. But the Bison, regardless of their FCS designation, are a far better team than anybody Iowa has yet played this year. If the Hawkeyes hope to remain relevant in the Big Ten this year after winning the West Division in 2015, they have to avoid the upset against the strongest college team outside the FBS.
