If Green was wearing Purple and Gold all would be praising his greatness for what it truly is.

The guy is great and makes plays.

PP did well against him, yet got burned early in the game bigtime, but Cox is not very good.

The celebration calls were pathetic both ways.

I don't understand all the talk about AJ Green's push offs. Bottom line is that everyone in the country knew that the SEC's best were going to be matched up all game. It would be two future pros who were going to be physical and go at each other. With that physicality comes contact. Sure, Green might have given Peterson a bump here or there but don't kid yourself into thinking Peterson wasn't going to push back and fight for position.

For instance, look at the attempted fade in the endzone when Peterson broke the play up. His arm was wrapped around Green's waist and he reached around to bat the ball down. Technically, is it pass interference? Yes. But it was a physical game from the get-go, and Patrick Peterson was playing physical and made a good play. Watch the NFL games today. Pushing and fighting for position happens every play. It's the way the game is played.
