The Southeastern Conference unveiled its 144-game men’s basketball schedule for the 2027 season on Monday.
League play tips off on Saturday, January 2, and runs through Saturday, March 6. Each SEC team plays the other 15 teams at least once during league play. Three teams will be played a second time during the schedule – two which are permanent opponents and one that will change each year.
The SEC Tournament returns to Nashville, Tenn., as Bridgestone Arena will host the event from March 10-14, 2027.
Eight SEC teams enter the 2026-27 season ranked in ESPN’s Way-Too-Early Top 25 rankings: 1st Florida, 6th Tennessee, 7th Texas, 11th Arkansas, 15th Alabama, 17th Kentucky, 20th Vanderbilt, and 21st Missouri.
The SEC has earned more NCAA Tournament berths than any other conference over the last two seasons (14 in 2025 and 10 in 2026). The SEC’s two-year average of 12 NCAA Tournament teams tops the prior single-season record (11) set by the Big East in 2011.
The SEC finished the 2026 regular season leading the nation in average NET (46.3), WAB (46.4), KenPom (40.7) and Torvik (42.4) rankings. The +19.65 KenPom rating by the SEC was the fifth highest in history and second highest over the last 21 seasons.
Midweek games (Tuesday or Wednesday), game times and television information will be announced at a later date.
