2027 Baseball Schedule Unveiled
The Big 12 Conference unveiled its 2027 baseball schedule on Thursday, outlining a 30‑game slate that will see each of the league’s 13 members face ten of their conference rivals over the course of the season.
Conference play is set to begin on March 18 and will run through May 21, with the majority of series arranged as Friday‑Sunday matchups, though a handful of Thursday‑Saturday series will also be on the calendar.
Tournament and NCAA Implications
The postseason tournament will return to Surprise Stadium in Surprise, Arizona, from May 25 through May 29, featuring the top twelve teams competing for the conference championship.
Kansas enters the season as the defending tournament champion and the recent regular‑season title holder, aiming to become the first Big 12 program since 2009 to capture both honors in the same year.
Key Matchups and Adjustments
The schedule highlighted several marquee series, including a late‑season showdown for BYU and a potential adjustment to the March 26‑28 set that could be moved to March 25‑27 by mutual agreement to accommodate weather or broadcast needs.
The release also underscored the conference’s growing footprint, noting that five current members — Arizona, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas Tech and West Virginia — have reached the College World Series in twelve of the past thirteen postseasons.
