Locals savor BCS Championship experience

According to Morris residents Mike, Jim and Austin Feeney, their trip to the BCS championship game at Sun Life Stadium last week was one they will never forget. Lifelong Notre Dame fans, the trio savored their time in South Florida before, during and after the game.

"Twenty-five years ago, Notre Dame played in the championship game and I remember sitting and watching the game with my dad (Jim)," Jim Feeney said.

"Notre Dame beat West Virginia that day, but it's been 25 years since it happened. Hopefully that won't happen and (ND coach Brian) Kelly can get them back, but even if that's so, it was a great experience despite the outcome."
