knock on wood for a 2020 season first.

Anyway, it's hard to improve on a 16-0 season and it'd be easy to feel complacent after the back-to-back undefeated seasons but I can think of two areas that could use improvement:

Rush defense: NDSU was not excellent against the run. The last nine games, the LOWEST number of yards rushing given up was 160 which would be bad by normal NDSU standards (that said, NDSU's defense held four of those teams to under 100 yards passing which is pretty awesome.

False starts / offsides / illegal procedures: Hard to believe the sloppiness there (unless the offsides on defense were calculated risks.)
