Green is not a cutback runner
Green is absolutely capable of being a cutback runner and this will be the key to the game. One of his bread and butter plays is a misdirection play where everyone on offense moves in one direction, showing a 'stretch' play and he cuts it back the other way. Take a look at his 75-yard run last week against Purdue (linked). They will run that play 10+ times against us. He made a living in the PSU game on that play. I disagree with your thought that we don't have to worry about over-pursuit. We do. He'll kill us if we over-pursue. We need to be disciplined. It is scary, frankly, as we are very, very suspect against the cutback/misdirection type plays.
