After reading this thread and before viewing the game (DVR recording), I became particularly interested in hearing Pollack's comments. I am not a fan of Pollack and find him annoyingly biased towards the SEC when I watch College Gameday. That said, I found him to be consistently complimentary on two topics - (1) Rosen and (2) Stanford's recent play.
Further, and to be fair to Pollack, I thought it would be of interest here to mention that on both of the PI calls, it was Jesse Palmer who pointed out that Hogan had underthrown the ball (not Pollack). Indeed, on Owusu's catch, Pollack wasn't critical and when one of the other commentators said the catch would be a candidate for top 10 play, Pollack exclaimed that it was THE top play and all the other plays would be fighting for 2-10.
