The University of Arkansas softball program released its 2027 SEC schedule, highlighting four home series at Bogle Park in Fayetteville. The Razorbacks will host Ole Miss, defending national champion Texas, Texas A&M and Tennessee during conference play.
Key dates and matchups
Arkansas opens the season on the road against South Carolina (March 12‑14) before returning home for the first home series against Ole Miss (March 19‑21). After a road trip to Auburn (March 26‑28), the Longhorns visit Bogle Park for a marquee series (April 2‑4), marking Texas’s first trip to Fayetteville since the 2022 NCAA Super Regionals.
Following a three‑game away series at LSU in Baton Rouge (April 9‑11), the Razorbacks host Texas A&M (April 16‑18), travel to Kentucky (April 23‑25) and close SEC play by hosting Tennessee (April 30‑May 2). A conference bye falls on the final weekend of the regular season (May 6‑8).
SEC tournament moves to neutral site
For the first time since 2003, the SEC Softball Tournament will be held at a neutral venue. All 15 conference teams will travel to Madison, Alabama, where the tournament will be played at Toyota Field, home of the Double‑A Rocket City Trash Pandas, from May 11‑15.
Razorbacks building on historic 2026 season
Arkansas enters 2027 after a landmark 2026 campaign that produced a 47‑13 record and the program’s first appearance in the Women’s College World Series. The 47 victories rank second‑most in school history, and the team set a program record with 26 run‑rule wins. At Bogle Park, the Razorbacks posted a 29‑3 home record, the second‑best home performance since the stadium opened in 2009.
Game times, television assignments and the non‑conference slate will be announced later. Some SEC series may be adjusted to finish on Mondays to accommodate TV scheduling.
