Deflategate - Engineering company demonstrates temperature's influence on pressure of NFL football

As engineers, we have been intrigued by all the #deflategate controversies and theories surrounding the New England Patriots. And, as engineers, we like to test theories against real-world conditions. Basically we wanted to find out whether or not temperature can actually influence the pressure (measured in psi) of an official NFL football - so we set up the following test: The Test: We placed two official NFL footballs in our calibrated thermal chamber and let the footballs reach equilibrium at 24 C (75F)
