Need help with paint

Have any of you MS baws ever tried to get paint in MSU Maroon? My mom is a wonderful old lady but didn't have any better sense than to attend MSU.
I am building something for her and the Sherwin-Williams store couldn't match the color from the PMS code and didn't have the paint code.
I'm looking in the Jackson area. If not an exact match, is there a standard manufacturer color that is a close match. I'm colorblind and can't be trusted to make that call.
ETA: Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

I knew something like this would be the first reply. The OT never disappoints!

A PDF with State's official colors
Might have to have it custom made, but this is all you'd need to get that accomplished:
HTML/HEX #5D1725
RGB: 93 23 37
CMYK 19 82 44 54
PMS 505

Try a different store, they should be able to match a pantone.

Not every paint manufacturer uses the same base colors for mixing. This is why some brands can match some colors exactly but can't match others (especially in different light). A Benjamin Moore rep told me this few years back.

Moron, Gray, Dark Gray, and White are MSU's colors....

He tried that, but every color ended up gray

Yeah...I found this but had no desire to wait several days for it to be shipped. Thanks.

Yes, I came armed with all these codes, but the local Sherwin-Williams can't convert it to their paint code.

Get something with the MSU color on it and have them scan it. Duh.

I was in Home Depot or Lowes awhile back and they had a LSU purple and gold that supposedly matched. The dude behind the counter said a lot of kids parents bought it to paint their boys room with it. Probably a lot of it sold in 2019.

Honestly, if MSU stuff is like TAMU stuff, even the color on licensed gear varies.
Oh well, I will give Home Depot a shot and if not, will just get as close as I can. I'm just being overly OCD. My mom is 79, I doubt she will be too worried about the color matching what their website says.

Friends don't let friends buy paint from Home Depot. Try Benjamin-Moore. They have high quality products with a semi-competent staff at most stores.
