Warren will test all three levels of No. 1 Oregon’s defense in Saturday’s Big Ten Championship game. The defensive line will square off with his as a blocker and runner between the tackles. The linebacking corps will regularly be called upon in pass coverage and the secondary will be tested whether he gets to the edges or over the middle.

Penn State will need Allar, Warren and the rest of the offense to step up and star on Saturday night when the Nittany Lions play for the Big Ten title. Penn State and Oregon will kick off at 8 p.m. Saturday at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. The game will air nationally on CBS.

Penn State football star senior Tyler Warren is the Big Ten Kwalick-Clark Tight End of the Year. The conference announced the honor Tuesday during its live postseason awards show on the Big Ten Network.

Carter was named the Big Ten’s Nagurski-Woodson defensive player of the year and the conference’s Smith-Brown defensive lineman of the year award winner — along with being first team All-Big Ten (coaches and media) — while Warren was named the Kwalick-Clark tight end of the year award winner — and also first team All-Big Ten (coaches and media).

It’s no surprise to Nittany Lions fans, but Tyler Warren is officially the best tight end in the Big Ten. The conference announced Tuesday that Warren is the winner of the 2024 Kwalick-Clark Tight End of the Year award presented to the best tight end in the Big Ten.

At the start of this week, both Penn State coach James Franklin and his Oregon counterpart, Dan Lanning, admitted they weren’t neck-deep just yet in film preparation ahead of the upcoming Big Ten championship.

With Penn State's improbable run to Saturday's Big Ten Championship, senior tight end Tyler Warren's quiet campaign for the Heisman Trophy is following a similar trajectory.
