The Southeastern Conference released its 2025 women’s basketball schedule on Wednesday, and Tennessee’s 16-game slate features home games against five teams appearing in the ESPN Way-Too-Early Top 25 and road tilts vs. three additional foes residing in that poll.
First-year Lady Vol head coach Kim Caldwell’s squad will welcome No. 1 South Carolina, No. 7 LSU, No. 13 Oklahoma, No. 21 Alabama and No. 23 Ole Miss to Food City Center. They’ll also face No. 6 Texas, No. 7 LSU and No. 25 Kentucky on the road. Oklahoma and Texas, former members of the Big 12 Conference, are making their debuts in the now 16-team SEC.
While tip times and broadcast details have yet to be announced, season tickets for an impressive home schedule are on sale now and can be purchased here.
“Our schedule is challenging, and the SEC is loaded this year, but we are excited to see where we stand among the top teams in the country,” Caldwell said. “We have been working hard during the preseason to create a blue collar program that Lady Vol fans will be proud to watch. We can’t wait to see everyone in Food City Center soon. The season will be here before we know it.”
Conference play will begin on Thursday, Jan. 2, and run through Sunday, March 2. The schedule consists of a single round robin (14 games) of home and away contests with one rotating home/away opponent (2 games). LSU is the rotating foe in 2025.
