The epic finish to the Chattanooga Mocs first playoff game in seven years seems to have been worth the wait.

No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game - but how? This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome ... which suddenly seems so irrelevant.
