#"Boyle's Law"# assumes a given quantity of gas.

Explanation:

Clearly, if we pump in air into the football, the given assumption is invalid. For a full bladder (or whatever they fill footballs with these days), with a given quantity of gas present, the gas laws would give a reasonable approximation of temperature, pressure, and volume.
