This is what I was thinking as well. It has never really been about Iowa getting ran out of the building. With the slow style that Iowa plays it is very difficult to do this unless the other team shoots the lights out. However the common theme is that Iowa rarely ever wins these close games. This season seems to be the same ole thing as the previous two seasons which gets people's expectations to high to only be disappointed again and again.
