Oklahoma Women's Basketball SEC opponents for 2025-2026 season
The Oklahoma Sooners women's basketball team is coming off their first Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA tournament under head coach Jenny Baranczyk. The Sooners went 27-8 and 11-5 in their first season in the SEC, good for fourth place in the conference.
As OU gets ready for year two, the SEC released the conference opponents Oklahoma will face this season. Coming to the Lloyd Noble Center this season will be three of the best programs in the sport in South Carolina, Tennessee, and LSU. Those three schools have combined for 12 national titles. Tennessee is one of the blue-bloods of the sport. South Carolina has been on a dominant run under Dawn Staley. The Gamecocks have won three national championships since 2017, most recently in 2024. LSU earned its first national title in 2023 under Kim Mulkey.
Also coming to Norman for the 2025-2026 basketball season are Arkansas, Florida, Ole Miss, and Mississippi State.
This season, the Sooners will go on the road to face Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Kentucky, Missouri, Vanderbilt, and the Texas Longhorns. Unfortunately, the Sooners will only face the Longhorns once in 2025-2026, as SEC schedule makers have opted to give the Red River Rivals other home-and-home matchups.
Oklahoma's only home and home matchup this season comes against the Texas A&M Aggies. Last year the Sooners beat the Aggies 77-62, led by 16 points from Raegan Beers. Texas will take on the LSU Tigers in a home and home next year.
The 2025-2026 season marks the arrival of the No. 1 player in the country for the 2025 recruiting class, Aaliyah Chavez. She'll join a roster full of experience with Beers, Peyton Verhulst, Sahara Williams, and Zya Vann.
