Most underappreciated nice season: West Virginia finished the season 8-5, beating Arizona State in what was essentially a home game for the Sun Devils. For Mountaineer fans who still relish the glory days of Rich Rodriguez, nothing short of a New Year’s Six bowl will be good enough. That represents a high bar for coach Dana Holgorsen.
Based on results through the bowl season and returning players (including those who have not yet announced for the NFL draft), the way-too-early Big 12 power ratings for 2016:
1. Oklahoma
2. Baylor
3. TCU
4. Oklahoma State
5. West Virginia
6. Texas Tech
7. Texas
8. Kansas State
9. Iowa State
10. Kansas
