Great teams never have crunch time for their quarterbacks to deliver in.

Say Joe Montana, John Elway, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, and any number of other QBs said to be great on great teams who are famous for leading 4th quarter come back wins.  Even the best teams have to pull games out of the fire.  Football is far too emotional and too physically demanding of a sport for it to be any other way.  Nobody would argue WSU is a better team than Stanford, but WSU will likely be way more emotionally fired up for that game than Stanford, which could make it a tough game for Stanford that requires last drive heroics from Hogan.

There's a lot less parity in college. Part of the reason that Hogan doesn't have many game-winning drives is that he hasn't needed to all that many times, we were either blowing teams out or getting blown out. Terry's list of games is probably half of the close games we've played with Hogan at the helm, which is about how many you expect to win. (I could look this up, but laaaazy and it's not really important anyway.)
