2025 SEC Baseball Tournament Bracket: Updated matchups, scores, schedule, TV

SEC Baseball continues to dominate on the diamond with 13 of their 16 teams currently projected to be in the NCAA Tournament, including eight who could host Regionals or Super Regionals, this time next week. First for them, though, is the SEC Tournament down in Hoover, Alabama.

Again, a lot is in play this week just south of Birmingham. Several of these teams will be in contention this week but also want to best position themselves to host, or even just make, the bigger tournament next week in hopes of reaching the College World Series, which five different teams from the conference have won the past five times it has been held in Omaha.

Here’s the latest scores and updates from the SEC Baseball Tournament at Hoover Met Stadium. Check them out below:

2025 SEC Baseball Tournament Bracket

Tuesday, May 20

Game 1: No. 9 Alabama 4, No. 16 Missouri 1
Mizzou was in a good spot early with a solo home run to take a 1-0 lead in the first game this week down in Hoover. However, Alabama immediately responded with a pair of RBI singles at the bottom of the same inning before single scores in the seventh, a flyout, and eighth, a home run, to earn the 4-1 win, despite it nearly extending with the bases loaded at the top of the ninth, over the Tigers. The Tide will now face Tennessee tomorrow morning in the second round.

Game 2: No. 12 Oklahoma 5, No. 13 Kentucky 1
A two-run home run from Jason Walk got Oklahoma rolling, and the Sooners never looked back en route to a 5-1 victory over Kentucky in the first round of the SEC tournament. The Wildcats’ lone run came on an error in the third inning, meaning the Oklahoma pitching staff didn’t allow an earned run in the win.

Game 3: No. 10 Florida 11, No. 15 South Carolina 3
Despite allowing a run in the first inning, Florida took full control in Tuesday’s game against South Carolina and flirted with a run-rule en route to the 11-3 victory. Five Gators had at least two RBI, led by three from Bobby Boser on a home run in the second inning.

Wednesday, May 21

Game 4: No. 14 Texas A&M 9, No. 11 Mississippi State 0
Texas A&M made short work of Mississippi State on Wednesday morning, plating eight runs in the first three innings to take a commanding lead. The highlight was a Jace LaViolette grand slam in the top of the second inning. That hit came after he’d gone 0-for his previous 18 plate appearances. It was just what the doctor ordered for the Aggies, whose strong pitching yielded just six hits on the afternoon in a 9-0 win.

Game 5: No. 8 Tennessee 15, No. 9 Alabama 10
On a day where offense was plentiful, Alabama took an early lead on Tennessee with a five-run top of the fifth inning that made the score 6-5 Crimson Tide midway through the contest. It was all Volunteers from there. Tennessee would score 10 unanswered runs, courtesy of a few Alabama miscues and some timely hitting. And that was all she wrote, even when the Crimson Tide rallied a bit in the ninth. Tennessee moves on with a whopping 20 hits.

Game 6: No. 12 Oklahoma 3, No. 5 Georgia 2
Oklahoma pulled off an upset win over Georgia to advance int the SEC Tournament. The Sooners got a strong start from star pitcher Kyson Witherspoon which helped provide a platform for the offense to get going. Solid offensive play through the middle innings helped put three runs on the board, which proved enough to hold on.

Game 7: No. 7 Ole Miss 3, No. 10 Florida 1
Ole Miss held off Florida in the final innings to secure a win and in a game which featured more errors than runs scored. The three-run fourth inning burst was enough to hold off the Gators, who only managed one run against the stout Ole Miss pitching staff. The Rebels now advance through to the next round on Friday.

Thursday, May 22

Game 8: No. 14 Texas A&M 3, No. 6 Auburn 2
The lower-seeded Aggies took an early lead in the third inning with a 3-run home run from junior Kaeden Kent and never relented to stay alive in the single-elimination SEC Tournament. Auburn finally got on the board in the bottom of the fifth with a solo shot from junior Eric Snow to cut A&M’s advantage to 3-1. The Tigers would add one more with a one-out solo home run from junior Lucas Steele in the bottom of the ninth inning, but no more. Aggies left-handed starter Justin Lamkin limited the Tigers to just one run on three hits over five innings for the win.

Game 9: No. 8 Tennessee 7, No. 1 Texas 5
Tennessee and Texas was a back-and-forth affair, with the Longhorns leading 4-0 through four innings before the Longhorns scored the next four across the next two innings. Those were the final runs before extra-innings, with each team scoring once in the 10th before Tennessee added a pair to grab a 7-5 lead in the 12th. The big hit came from Gavin Kilen, who also homered in the 10th before his two-run double in the 12th. With the win, Tennessee keeps adding more meat to their hosting resume.

Game 10: No. 4 Vanderbilt 6, No. 12 Oklahoma 1
Vanderbilt got going with a four-run third inning, and that was all they needed. Later adding insurance runs in the fourth and seventh, the Commodores cruised their way onto the semifinals. R.J. Austin led the way for Vanderbilt, tallying two hits and driving in three runs on the day. The Commodores’ win solidifies them in the conversation for the top overall seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Friday, May 23

Game 11: No. 7 Ole Miss 5, No. 2 Arkansas 2
On Friday, Ole Miss stunned Arkansas 5-2 to advance to the SEC Tournament semifinals. In the win, the Rebels were perfect in the field, not committing a single error. Pitcher Riley Maddox recorded a career-high 104 pitches, tallying seven strikeouts in the process.

Game 12: No. 3 LSU 4, No. 14 Texas A&M 3
Texas A&M refused to go away on Friday night after trailing LSU 4-0 early. After seemingly tying the game 4-4 in the seventh inning, Aggies fans went wild. However, their cheers were short-lived when the umpires ruled that Texas A&M had committed a runner’s lane violation. LSU didn’t give Texas A&M another chance to tie the game and will be playing in the semifinals tomorrow.

Game 13: No. 4 Vanderbilt def. No. 8 Tennessee, 10-0 (F/7)
It’s always fun when Vanderbilt and Tennessee match up on the diamond, but the Commodores had much more pleasant Saturday than the Volunteers in the SEC Tournament Semifinals. It was a dominating performance, as Vanderbilt hit Tennessee with the run-rule in the seventh inning, advancing to the finale via a 10-0 win. Cody Bowker and Connor Fennell combined to blank the Volunteers. The Commodores didn’t have an extra-base hit, but it didn’t matter — they’re on to the championship game on Sunday.

Game 14: No. 7 Ole Miss def. No. 3 LSU, 2-0

Ole Miss took an early lead on LSU in the semifinal of the SEC Tournament, courtesy of a solo home run from first baseman Will Furniss. The Rebels would add another run in the top of the fourth inning when designated hitter Campbell Smithwick hit an RBI single to right field. That made it 2-0 in what quickly developed into a high-quality pitching battle. LSU was limited to just two hits in the contest, as Ole Miss used four pitchers effectively in advancing to the tournament title game.

Championship Game: No. 4 Vanderbilt 3, No. 7 Ole Miss 2

Freshman slugger Brodie Johnston belted a two-run home run in the bottom of the first inning to provide an early cushion while five Vanderbilt pitchers combined for 10 strikeouts to secure the program’s fifth SEC Championship and first since 2023. Johnston finished 2-for-4 at the plate while Braden Holcomb went 2-for-3 for the ‘Dores’ only multi-hit games Sunday. Ole Miss put a ninth-inning scare in Vanderbilt as senior Isaac Humphrey drilled a solo home run with one out and had two runners on before Commodores senior closer Sawyer Hawks shut the door with a popup to center to end the threat.
