Of the teams with more wins than NDSU (1894), only Oklahoma (1895) and Florida (1906) began playing football after NDSU. Arkansas and Texas A&M both had the same inaugural season as NDSU.
No team with more wins than NDSU has played fewer games than NDSU. NDSU has played 28 fewer games than any other team in the top 30.
The only FCS teams with more wins than NDSU are the top four Ivy League schools (Yale (#2), Harvard (#10), Penn (#11), and Princeton(#14)). Dartmoth (#34(T)), Cornell (#64), and Brown (#74) also appear in the top 100. Columbia isn't even close with 373 wins and a .376 overall win percentage.
