The SEC has laid out its 2027 baseball schedule, and Mizzou now knows the road map for a 30-game conference slate that stretches from mid-March through late May.
The league announced Tuesday that all 16 SEC schools have their conference schedules set for 2027. The season opens with four weeks of non-conference play before 10 straight weeks of league series, with the first SEC weekend set for March 19-21 and the regular season wrapping up May 20-22. The schedule can still shift for television, including the possibility that some series will start on Thursdays.
The SEC Tournament is set for May 25-30 at the Hoover Met in Hoover, Alabama.
For Mizzou, the league format remains the same: three-game series against permanent opponents Oklahoma and Arkansas, plus eight rotating opponents to reach 30 conference games.
The Tigers’ conference slate begins on the road at Mississippi State from March 19-21, then brings Kentucky to Taylor Stadium for the home opener in league play March 26-28. Mizzou will follow that with trips to Auburn and Arkansas, then home series against Alabama, Oklahoma and LSU, along with road dates at Ole Miss, South Carolina and Florida to close the regular season.
Here’s the full Mizzou SEC schedule for 2027:
March 19-21 | at Mississippi State
March 26-28 | vs. Kentucky
April 2-4 | at Auburn
April 9-11 | vs. Alabama
April 16-18 | at Arkansas
April 23-25 | vs. Oklahoma
April 30-May 2 | at Ole Miss
May 7-9 | vs. LSU
May 14-16 | at South Carolina
May 20-22 | at Florida
May 25-30 | SEC Tournament (Hoover, Ala.)
In 2026, a nation-best 12 SEC teams reached the NCAA Tournament, and Oklahoma captured the league’s seventh straight national title and 18th overall.
Mizzou baseball season ticket interest is also open, with the school directing fans to complete the Season Ticket Interest Form to be notified when 2027 season tickets go on sale.

Missouri Heads To Kansas With More Than Rivalry Bragging Rights
Kansas and No. 23 Missouri will renew their historic football rivalry in Lawrence, giving the matchup a little extra edge beyond the usual early-season measuring stick. Both teams arrive off opening-week wins, and coaches Lance Leipold and Eli Drinkwitz have each framed the game through the lens of preparation, poise and what this rivalry still means in a landscape where so few old border battles remain on the calendar.
For Missouri, there is also the practical matter of getting healthier up front, with left tackle Cayden Green possibly back from injury for the trip. The long pause in the series only adds to the stakes, because unless the teams cross paths in the College Football Playoff, they will not see each other again until the 2031 and 2032 seasons, making this one of those rare games where history, timing and timing again all seem to matter at once.

Mizzou Faces A Border War Test That Could Swing On One Matchup
The Border War is back on the calendar, and Missouri heads into David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium knowing this one has the feel of more than just an early-season measuring stick. Kansas brings an offense shaped by coordinator Andy Kotelnicki that has been built to push the pace and stress defenses, while the Tigers are preparing for the kind of game where one clean matchup or one busted assignment can change the tone fast. Add in the rivalry history and the buzz around both young quarterbacks, and the setup is exactly what you would expect when these two get together.
For Missouri, the challenge is not simply matching intensity but handling the swings that come with a game like this on the road. The atmosphere should be lively, the stakes feel bigger than a normal nonconference date, and Foxs broadcast slot only adds to the spotlight. The quarterback play on both sides is part of what makes it intriguing, but the real question is whether Missouri can manage the one area that could tilt everything before the night is over.

Missouri Suddenly Has A Running Back Problem At The Worst Time
Missouris backfield was already thin, and now it has been hit hard before the season has really had a chance to settle in. Running back Malae Fonoti is done for the year after suffering a non-contact ACL tear in the season opener, and head coach Eli Drinkwitz said Fonoti will undergo surgery. It is the kind of early setback that can ripple through an offense quickly, especially for a team trying to establish depth behind its top options.
The concern does not stop there, either. Backup Ahmad Hardy remains unavailable while he recovers from a gunshot wound, which leaves Xai'Shaun Edwards in line as the likely No. 2 back behind Jamal Roberts. For Missouri, that makes every snap in the run game feel a little more fragile, and it puts added pressure on the players still standing to absorb a workload the Tigers were not planning on this soon.
