While it is easily possible for an act of sexual intercourse to be worse than expected, can it ever be better than expected? If your gut feeling is, sex with this person is going to be unpleasant, is that gut feeling ever wrong?
The hypothesized answer is "no", by the following mechanism: the pleasantness of sex derives from the one's mental model of the other person. Great sex must engage the mind. If one's mental model of the other person is not appealing (which is what your gut feeling reports), then sex is doomed not to be very pleasant.
The only way this could be wrong is if one's mental model of the other person changes, but we disregard this possibility as unimportant because we assume there has already been a "getting to know you" phase to acquire enough information to form a mental model accurate enough to evaluate having sex.

In my experience, it does happen. You're probably overestimating the importance of the psychology and neglecting that of the physical acts.
