Forget all that talk about speed and strength and leverage. Wrestling, put simply, is all about math. Iowa scored bonus points in six of its eight wins Sunday to beat Iowa State, 34-7, for the Hawkeyes' 30th consecutive win in the rivalry of two of the sport's most accomplished programs. "It's not like we're the Globetrotters and they're the Washington Generals," said Jessman Smith, who scored a takedown at the buzzer to make his victory over Austen Palmer an 11-3 major decision at 184 pounds. "They're tough, but we always get up for them. They're a little bit down right now, but they'll be right back up there in no time."
