North Dakota State is the team of the decade, now winning eight of the last nine FCS championships — a new subdivision record. The Bison have the most wins in FCS play since 2010 and boast a 35-2 all-time record in FCS playoff games.

Win percentage: .597

First season: 1889

Delaware is tied for seventh with 16 all-time appearances in the FCS playoffs. The Blue Hens' 2003 FCS championship win is one of six national titles in program history at any level. Delaware went 7-5 in 2018 and appeared in the FCS playoffs for the first time since 2010.

All-time record: 

698-611-45

Win percentage: .532

First season: 1884

Lehigh represents one half of college football's most-played rivalry, known as "The Rivalry." Seventy-one of the Mountain Hawks' 694 all-time wins have come against top foe Lafayette. Lafayette leads the series 79-71-5, including a 17-16 2019 win.

9. Dayton

All-time record: 

688-377-25

Win percentage: .643

First season: 1905

Dayton has gone 44 years without being shut out — a streak that started when the Flyers were still in Division III. That's a good formula for putting up wins. Dayton had the highest winning percentage among FCS teams in the 1990s (92 wins, .844) and the second highest in the 2000s (87 wins, .791).
