On Thursday afternoon, the SEC announced its first-ever 16-team conference schedule for the 2025 season with Texas and Oklahoma officially in the fray.
The SEC grind will be brutal as usual, as Baseball America’s way-too-early rankings has Tennessee opening league play with No. 2-ranked Florida coming to Knoxville to kick off the conference schedule. The Vols will also host No. 5 Texas A&M in a rematch of last year’s CWS Final, No. 23 Kentucky, then get a bit of reprieve with an Auburn squad that finished around .500 last year and won just eight of its 30 SEC games.
