Warren’s career-high for rushing touchdowns in a season is four, which he tied with the score. Also worth noting, adding his receiving touchdown from earlier in the year, he broke his previous best for total touchdowns in a season.
In the first half, Warren had seven carries for 20 yards and a TD. He added two receptions for nine yards out of the backfield.
Both defenses stepped up early, and the score stood at 7-3 going into halftime.
