Men’s Hoops: SEC announces opponents, locations for Texas’ 2026-27 league schedule

[Jeff Howe]

Home: Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Kentucky, Missouri and Tennessee

Road: Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, South Carolina and Vanderbilt

Home-and-Home: Florida, Oklahoma and Texas A&M

[Jeff Howe]

The nine SEC opponents plus Memphis highlight the home schedule.

Road schedule is very manageable. Looking forward to big Monday at Florida

Looks like a 12-6 or 13-5 type of SEC record to me.  Hopefully that’s good enough for a top 4 finish in the SEC for the double bye in the SEC tournament and bodes well for them seeding wise in the NCAA Tournament.

I’m glad you brought up NCAA Tournament seeding.

Now is as good of a time as any to remind everyone that Fort Worth is hosting first and second-round games in 2027 and the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio hosts the South Regional.

The last time Texas went to the Final Four, the Longhorns were the No. 1 seed in the South Region and went through San Antonio (the Alamodome) to get to New Orleans.

o/u at 11.5 or 12.5 conference wins?

Under 12.5, slightly 

Very tough league and schedule.

Last year’s SEC standings 

Anything 13-5/12-6 would be a hell of a conference schedule record 

[TTaylor2135]

I'll definitely be attending the road trips for USC and Georgia. Maybe sneak in a trip to Nashville too but would hope that's a weekend game. 

[Jeff Howe]

Finishing above .500 in the SEC is an accomplishment. Anything over 10 wins means you had a heck of a year.

Playing Florida twice blows

That's not happening unless there's an earthquake at ESPN. ACC/B12. 

SEC is the star of Tuesday and Wednesday.
