These wins helped the Cardinal earn a spot in the 2014 Rose Bowl against Michigan State, where the Spartans won a narrow 24–20 victory after stopping Hogan and the Cardinal offense on a critical 4th down play, late in the fourth quarter. Hogan finished the season with 2,630 passing yards, 20 touchdowns passing, two rushing touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. 2014 season Hogan remained the Cardinal's starting quarterback for the beginning of the 2014 season.

In a Halloween victory over Washington State, Hogan rushed for 112 yards and two late touchdowns, becoming only the second Stanford quarterback to rush for over 100 yards in a game. After a loss to Oregon, Hogan and the Cardinal won the rest of their regular season games, including a win against #6 Notre Dame, and claimed their third Pac-12 championship in four years. In his final college game, the 2016 Rose Bowl, Hogan helped lead Stanford to 35–0 halftime lead in an easy victory over Iowa. He finished the season with 2,867 passing yards and 27 touchdowns (tied for 3rd in school history), and rushed for 336 yards and 6 touchdowns (tying Jim Plunkett's 47-year-old school record). His 171.0 passing efficiency that season was a school record and fifth in the country, while his total offense of 3,203 yards is fourth all-time at Stanford. His 67.8% completion percentage was 2nd in the Pac-10 and 6th in the country, and his average 8.2 yards per play led the conference and was third in the country. He earned second-team All-Pac-12 honors. Hogan ended his career with a 65.9% completion percentage, 9,385 passing yards, 75 passing touchdowns, and a school-record 15 rushing touchdowns. His 1,249 rushing yards is the most by a Stanford quarterback, and includes four of the top seven seasons in that category. His combined total offense of 10,634 yards is also a school record, and his career passing efficiency of 154.6 is second only to Andrew Luck, and he holds three of Stanford's top 10 seasons in both categories. ==Professional career==
