Why can’t Siri give you women’s college sports scores?

Why is it that Siri will never give you any women’s college sports scores but if you ask Siri to give you football scores for college games, you will get them. Why the double standards?

Are you on the latest version oof iOS? I asked, "Siri, what is the score of the Nebraska Vs Purdue volleyball game." and Siri gave me the results on iOS 27 using a iPhone 18. Using an older operating system or older device may change the results based on what data Siri can access directly versus performing a search.

The “why?” questions are for Apple, not us. We don’t know.

They don’t have a Siri category, so I’d send it to the iPhone category.


“How are you asking for scores? I have no issues”


The question is, how are you asking? Seems the response is questionable, as saying, Hey Siri! what is the results of any women’s sports gets told to look it up, but not if you ask for the score of a football game. You get it.


here is how I do it…Siri, what is the score of the Nebraska Vs Prudue volleyball game. Siri says, check this out…directing me to look it up. If I ask Siri to give me the score of the Ohio State Vs Indiana football game, I get the score results. Tell me the difference?

Recent Mens college football scores are easily obtained from multiple sources.


if you tell Siri how to obtain the scores you want, you can have them easily.

Well I tried saying the same thing, on a iPhone that has iOS 27.01 and is an iPhone 17, and I got the same thing, Siri tells me to check it out and look it up. But when I asked for the score of the Ohio State football game, I got the results. Why?

How are you asking for scores? I have no issues.

I just tried it right now. I get the same results. Siri tells me to check it out and look it up, but if I ask for Indiana Ohio State football game results I get the score instantly..

Ios 27.

So why does it not have a problem giving me football scores and I get the score instantly but I have to look up women’s volleyball scores on the Internet that’s my question.

I have, seems to me, that men’s sports score rank higher. As asking for the score for the Ohio State football game gets instant results, while women’s teams get pushed to look it up. Why?
