Pretty awesome and well executed, the Air Force Academy's parachute demonstration team dropped into the Rose Bowl before the BCS championship game carrying an American flag and the game ball. The 6-person team parachuted into the stadium in Pasadena, Calif., before the 6 pm MST start time. The team also carried the coin used for the pre-game toss and flags representing the Bowl Championship Series and the two teams, Texas and Alabama. The drop team includes four cadets, all seniors at the school, and two staff members.
