Whistling past the graveyard

It was the question we were all asking two weeks ago. Is this a good team that finds ways to win close games at the end, and will build on that to have a special season (like Iowa in 2002)? Or is this a bad team that has been really, really lucky -- a 3-3 team that was 6-0 because a few plays went our way (like Minnesota in 2008)?

Looks like it was the second.
