A perfect ending for North Dakota State coach Chris Klieman and quarterback Easton Stick resulted in yet another championship for the Bison on Saturday. Stick ran for three touchdowns and threw for two more as the Bison beat Eastern Washington, 38-24, for a record-setting seventh title in the Football Championship Subdivision, formerly known as N.C.A.A. The title is the fourth in five years with Klieman as head coach. “It was a special journey — 15-0, end it with a national championship,” said Klieman, who is 69-6 as head coach of the Bison and will move to Kansas State next season. “That’s something that movies are made out of, dreams are made out of, books are written about.”North Dakota State (15-0) has now won seven F.C.S.
