Here's a look at South Carolina's schedule

The Southeastern Conference released the schedule for South Carolina women's basketball in 2026-27. Four of last season's top 25 finishers will be visiting the five-time SEC Champion Gamecocks.

For the second straight year, South Carolina will host Alabama in the league opener on New Year's Eve instead of New Year's Day. On Jan. 3, the Gamecocks travel to Texas, a Final Four participant.

Colonial Life Arena will host Arkansas (Jan. 10) and Oklahoma (Jan. 14) after South Carolina visits Mississippi State on Thursday (Jan. 7). During the next two weeks, South Carolina will play home and away games, traveling to Missouri (Jan. 17) and Tennessee (Jan. 28), and hosting Florida (Jan. 21) and top 20 finisher Kentucky (Jan. 31).

A pair of elite road games await South Carolina in February, including a challenge at Vanderbilt (Feb. 4) and a meeting at Oklahoma (Feb. 8).

A home game against Texas A&M (Feb. 11) will kick off another split week, with the Gamecocks spending their second-straight Valentine's Day on the road at No. 25 Ole Miss (Feb. 14).

An end-of-season home stand will feature two games. It will host Sweet 16 and top 10 finisher LSU on Feb. 21 before hosting Auburn on Feb. 25. As part of the SEC slate, the Gamecocks will play at border rival Georgia (Feb. 28), which participated in the NCAA Tournament in 2026.

Greenville, South Carolina, will host the 2027 SEC Women's Basketball Tournament from Mar. 3-7. Gamecocks' non-conference schedule, tipoff times, and television information for 2026-27 games will be announced later.
