Hence, why NDSU focuses on a run game with a West Coast Offense Scheme that utilizes TEs and RBs in the passing game too. Having some super elite WR at the FCS level isn't going to make much of a difference on how NDSU plays (maybe they throw the ball five more times a game, at most). Also, those type of WRs rarely play at this level. Moss did for bit along with T.O. and, of course, Jerry Rice. You see that type of WR in the FCS maybe once a decade.
In regards to FCS top WRs compared to guys likes R.J., they're not that much better, if at all. Their numbers are better because of one thing - the systems they play in. As I said before, if R.J. played for a team like SDSU instead of our team, we would have be envious of them like we were with Wieneke. His numbers would have been monstrous, but no National Championship rings to account for. The only reason you discount guys like Urzendowski and Vraa as elite WRs is because of their stats. That's flawed when not considering the system they play in.
