North Dakota State has won 11 consecutive games overall and five in a row against FBS opponents since 2010, though those streaks figure to be in jeopardy against a Big Ten squad that Bison coach Chris Klieman says might be the best theyve ever faced.Following back-to-back overtime home victories, North Dakota State -- the No. 1 team in the STATS FCS Top 25 -- will try to become the eighth FCS school to beat an FBS opponent this season when it visits Iowa -- the 13th-ranked Bowl Subdivision team -- on Saturday.Klieman, who grew up a Hawkeyes fan in Waterloo, Iowa, believes the Hawkeyes imposing size and overall physicality will be the biggest challenges for NDSU (2-0). Led by LeShun Daniels (195 yards, 3 TDs) and Akrum Wadley (170 yards, 3 TDs), Iowa has rushed for 410 yards over its two games and ranks 10th nationally with 6.3 yards per run.If we can control tempo the entire game and keep their offense off the field, have long drives, fatigue their defense and get points on the board, it only helps the team as a whole because it keeps our defense fresh and allows them to get stops and allows us to get back on the field, Daniels said.The Bison cant let that happen after allowing 275 rushing yards in their first two games. They also let Eastern Washingtons Gage Gubrud throw for 450 yards and four touchdowns in last weeks 50-44 win.C.J. Beathard has thrown for 427 yards with four scores and no picks for Iowa, which has racked up 87 points and 715 total yards. The Hawkeyes rolled past Iowa State by 39 points last weekend -- the biggest win over their rivals in coach Kirk Ferentzs 18 seasons.Beathards an exceptional player. These guys up front are a lot better than Eastern Washington or Charleston Southern ... this is a Big Ten offensive line, Klieman said.Theyre not going to beat themselves, so that being said, we have to eliminate the mistakes weve made to give ourselves a chance.Klieman would like his squad to cut down on its penalties -- particularly offensively -- and hes also hoping Easton Stick can continue to make strides. The sophomore made several key plays against the Eagles, completing 17 of 26 passes for 257 yards with two scores. Hes also run for 105 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries in the two games.Lance Dunn leads NDSUs rushing attack with 179 yards on nearly seven yards per carry. Fellow sophomore Darrius Shepherd has been the top target in the passing game with eight catches for 127 yards and two touchdowns.Theyll face an Iowa defense that showed improvement last week, holding the Cyclones to 291 yards and forcing Iowa States two quarterbacks to complete just 14 of 35 passes for 165 yards and one interception.When we talk about North Dakota State, they take a backseat to no one, Ferentz said. Theyre accustomed to winning. They know what it takes and theyve got good players who are well coached.Ill go out on a limb and predict this will be a really strong team, a really tough opponent for us.NDSU has gone 8-3 with a five-game winning streak against FBS programs, though that run has come against Kansas, Minnesota, Colorado State, Kansas State and Iowa State -- hardly national powerhouses. The Hawkeyes are seeking their 15th straight regular-season win and 10th in a row at home, which is a streak that started with a 31-14 victory over Illinois State last September.Itll be a daunting task, said Klieman, who began coaching at NDSU in 2011 and is 30-3 in his three seasons as head coach. Well have to come up with great game plans and our kids have to play exceptional football for us to have an opportunity to be successful. Make no mistake, since Ive been here this is the most complete team that the Bison will face. China Shoes Wholesale . Brandon Morrow allowed five runs on six hits over three innings.

She actually felt like she might throw up in the pool.That wasnt enough to slow her.Ledecky, a 19-year-old from suburban Washington, took the most challenging step toward a feat that has been done only one other time, holding off Swedens Sarah Sjostrom to win the 200-meter freestyle Tuesday for her second gold of the Olympics.Debbie Meyer is the only female swimmer to capture the three longest freestyle events at a single Olympics, winning the 200, 400 and 800 at the 1968 Mexico City Games. Now that the 200 is out of the way, Ledecky is essentially a lock to match Meyer.Ledecky crushed the world record in the 400 and will be an overwhelming favorite in the 800, where shes the world-record holder and far faster than anyone else in the world. The 200 was the only one really in doubt.That was a really tough race, and it hurt really badly, Ledecky said. Im pretty sure its the closest Ive come to throwing up in the middle of a race. Im just so glad I got my hand on the wall first and it was all worth it.Fifth at the first flip turn, a bit faster than she usually goes out, Ledecky powered to the front on the third lap and feistily fended off a hard-chargging Sjostrom coming to the wall.ddddddddddddLedecky touched in 1 minute, 53.73 seconds.The silver went to Sjostrom in 1:54.08, and early leader Emma McKeon faded to the bronze in 1:54.92. World-record holder Federica Pelligrini of Italy was fourth.This might be the shortest race on Ledeckys program, but its definitely her toughest, requiring both speed and endurance against a far more competitive field.The 200 is a much more stressful race than the 400 and 800, and it always just feels good when its over, she said. I took it out pretty fast and kind of forced everybody to try to do that. Once I was ahead I knew I wasnt going to let it out of my hands. I knew I wasnt going to be able to see most of the field on the last 50, so I just had to dig deep.Ledecky also claimed silver in the 4x100 free relay and has two more races to go, setting herself up for a medal haul that would fully live up to the enormous expectations she faced coming into the Olympics.In addition to the 800, shes likely to anchor the 4x200 freestyle relay, another event where the Americans are big favorites.?
