OT: Experiences with using VT maroon paint in your house

So we are closing on a house in the Triangle and the bonus room currently has an NC-State red accent wall that I need to coverup. My initial reaction is to grab the RGB numbers for the official VT maroon and paint over top of it, but my wife is hesitant.

Has anyone had any experience doing similar and end up with it looking good (or bad)? Is there a tweek to the color numbers that ends up looking better in a house (considering we have used like 10 different maroons on our jerseys).
