For much of last season, Iowa often seemed to do just enough to lose. Then the Hawkeyes beat Penn State in the final seconds, and they've been masters of the close win ever since.

No. 11 Iowa's 30-28 win over Michigan on Saturday night was the Hawkeyes' 10th straight since that 2008 victory over the Nittany Lions.
The Hawkeyes (6-0, 2-0 Big Ten) have won three home games by a total of six points. Though they're the last unbeaten team in the conference, they've had only one truly comfortable victory, a 35-3 blowout at Iowa State.

It's preferable to last season, when the Hawkeyes lost four games by a total of 12 points.

After struggling to win close games, No. 11 Iowa has become master of the narrow victory -- Courant.com

Huge win for the Hawkeyes today 20 - 10 @ Wisconsin. Their defense has been awesome this year and are now 7-0. Iowa is now the front runner to win the Big 10 with the Buckeyes loss today to Purdue.

It wasnt even close.
The first quarter and a half, I couldnt figure out how they managed to win. They just didnt look that good. But they hang in there. Wisconsin fell apart.
Iowa quarterback is dangerous when he gets out of the pocket. Big play every time .
