Not many quarterbacks can say they've played in three Rose Bowls, much less one. Who would have thought that Kevin Hogan would become one of that exclusive group? Not even Andrew Luck could get Stanford to Pasadena, and neither could John Elway.
The fifth-year senior has a chance to win his second Rose Bowl against Iowa on New Years' Day -- which would have been his third had David Shaw not used the power running game as his two-minute drill. Sigh.
After all of these Rose Bowls, it begs the question: which Hogan team was the best?
