Arkansas women's basketball has unveiled its 2026‑27 SEC schedule, laying out a full slate of conference contests that will see the Razorbacks both host and travel to a series of traditional powerhouses.
A Renewed Rivalry with Mississippi State
One of the most anticipated pairings is a home-and-away series with Mississippi State, a matchup that hasn't been scheduled in this format since the 2021‑22 season, adding a layer of excitement for fans who remember the previous meetings.
In addition to the Mississippi State series, Arkansas will open its home floor to Alabama, Florida, LSU, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Tennessee and Texas A&M, while the team will hit the road for games at Auburn, Georgia, Kentucky, Missouri, South Carolina, Vanderbilt and Texas.
While exact dates, start times and television designations are slated for release in early August, the schedule already provides a clear picture of the competitive landscape the Razorbacks will navigate.
The upcoming season marks the second year for head coach Kelsi Musick, who guided the program to a 12‑20 overall record and a 1‑15 mark in SEC play during her debut campaign.
Despite the modest win total, Musick’s tenure has been defined by a focus on rebuilding fundamentals and cultivating a deeper roster, a process that continues as the team prepares for the new slate.
Arkansas missed the NCAA Tournament last year and has not returned to the national postseason since 2022, making the upcoming schedule a critical opportunity to shift momentum and contend for a tournament berth.
Looking Forward
With a blend of home‑court advantage and challenging away trips, the Razorbacks hope to translate early-season progress into a sustained push that could restore the program to the NCAA Tournament and beyond.
