2025 SEC football schedule: Full list of dates, opponents revealed

Less than a week after crowning its 2024 champion, the SEC is gearing up for next year. The league revealed its full 2025 schedule Wednesday, including the list of dates and opponents.

Last year was one of change for the SEC. Divisions went away as two new members – Oklahoma and Texas – officially joined the fold. That made it a 16-team conference, and one of those newcomers played in the SEC Championship last week.

Texas fell to Georgia in Atlanta on Saturday as the Bulldogs won their second conference title in three years. That sealed an automatic berth in the College Football Playoff for UGA, although the Longhorns still made the 12-team field. They will host Clemson in the first round later this month.

But even as both teams, along with Tennessee, continue their quest for a national title, the schedule was being put together for next season. The matchups came out Wednesday to start building anticipation for the 2025 campaign.
