The grades are in the books for the the Big 12 in 2016.
We’re starting to unveil our report cards this week with West Virginia, which capped its best season out of five in the league with a disappointing performance in the Russell Athletic Bowl, losing to Miami.

At the close of the regular season, coach Dana Holgorsen received a five-year contract extension as WVU closed at No. 16 in the College Football Playoff rankings.
