same spec

Is this what you would say or do you have to use different words?

Footballs in the NFL are all inflated to same spec.

That is fine informally. I would probably use "pressure" instead of "spec".

Hello,

Is specification the correct word because spec and pressure don't mean the same thing.

All footballs are inflated to the league's specification. [spec]
All footballs are inflated to the same specification. [spec]

Thanks

The idea is this.

The league specifies that the pressure should be eg 100psi.
Consequently, all footballs used in the league are inflated to 100psi.

"All footballs are inflated to league specifications." You don't need the possessive.

Clive Hello,
CliveThe league specifies that the pressure should be eg 100psi. Consequently, all footballs used in the league are inflated to 100psi.
Does this mean that 'specification' is the correct word or pressure?
Thank you
