Oruwariye carried his junior year momentum into his redshirt senior year, starting in each of Penn State's 12 games, picking off three passes, and tallying a career highs in tackles, pass defenses, and forced fumbles.[8] His excellence was recognized by coaches, media, AP, and ESPN, all of whom named him to their All-B1G teams.[9] He received an invite to the Reese's Senior Bowl amidst discussions that he could potentially be a first round pick.[10][11]
