NORTH DAKOTA STATE WAS PAID $500,000 TO BEAT IOWA.
You also have to remember, it isn't like North Dakota State has some 5th year senior quarterback who has played all of his years starting for the team. Several FCS teams that have beaten FBS teams before come to mind with a very experienced, senior-laden team with accompanying quarterback. NDSU's QB was just drafted 2nd in April. He did not play in this game, a new quarterback did.
Looking at the stats, NDSU really controlled the game (1st downs, over 200 more yards rushing, total yards, and possession). NDSU came to Iowa and played Big 10 football, beating Iowa at their own game.
A little background about NDSU:

Why do teams still schedule NDSU?
6th FBS win in a row for NSDU. (Kansas, Minnesota, Colorado St., Kansas St., Iowa St., Iowa)
Oregon (plays NDSU 9/5/20) GET OUT NOW. DO NOT PLAY NDSU!!!
NDSU plays FCS powerhouse Illinois St. on 9/24.
