Doing a little research on deflated footballs. One of the Ideal Gas Laws is Amontons Law which states that a volume of gas in a confined space will experience a change in pressure directly proportional to the change in temperature. If you plug in different air temps to the equation you see a linear relationship to air pressure. Roughly computed: a football filled with 15 psi at 80 degrees Fahrenheit will reduce to 13 psi at 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
