SEC Sets Home-and-Away Designations for 2026–27 Women’s Basketball

They determine where each team will host and travel for the eight home and eight road conference games, shaping roster evaluation before dates and broadcasts are finalized.

Overview

  • The SEC released the home-and-away designations on June 16–17, assigning each program a 16-game conference slate made up of eight home games and eight road games.
  • Each team also received one rotating opponent to be played home-and-home this season with confirmed pairings including ArkansasMississippi State, South CarolinaOklahoma, TexasTexas A&M, TennesseeKentucky and GeorgiaFlorida.
  • The league’s format is a single round-robin against all other SEC teams plus the one annual double-opponent, a structure put in place after the conference added Texas and Oklahoma.
  • Dates, tip times and television windows remain unannounced and are expected to be finalized in the coming weeks, so schools will continue nonconference planning and roster integration ahead of the Dec. 31 start of SEC play.
  • The confirmed locations matter for teams with heavy roster turnover and recent WNBA draftees because those home-and-home assignments will affect scouting, travel demands and the chances to build an NCAA resume before postseason seeding.
