2025 SEC Women's Basketball Tournament: Updated matchups, results, schedule, TV

The 2025 SEC Women’s Basketball Tournament bracket has been updated and it’s official as the madness begins Wednesday. No more projections, just basketball.

Wednesday will feature four games to begin the SEC Tournament, starting promptly at 11 AM ET. Seeds No. 9 to 16 are in the first round and all games are in Greenville, South Carolina, at Bon Secours Wellness Arena.

The SEC Tournament will see the additions of both Texas and Oklahoma to its ranks, which means the tournament will look slightly different this year.

The top eight teams in the conference standings at the end of the regular season received byes in the conference tournament. Seeds 5 through 8 will receive a single bye and face off against the winners of the first-round games on March 6th. The top four teams received double byes and immediately advanced to the quarterfinals of the tournament.

Round 1

Game 1: No. 9 Tennessee 77, No. 16 Texas A&M 37

Tennessee actually trailed 13-11 after the first quarter but blew out the Aggies from there. They advance to take on Vanderbilt Thursday. Talaysia Cooper led the way with 19 points, nine rebounds and three assists.

Game 2: No. 12 Georgia 79, No. 13 Arkansas 74

Georgia and Arkansas traded a lot of jabs in this one, going back and forth. Despite Izzy Higginbottom’s efforts, the Razorbacks fell short. She put up 38 points, eight rebounds and three assists. Asia Avinger led the way for UGA with 19 points, five rebounds and four assists.

Game 3: No. 10 Mississippi State 75, No. 15 Missouri 55

Early in the third quarter, it looked like Missouri was in full control against Mississippi State with a 14-point lead. But the Bulldogs completely flipped the game from there, outscoring the Tigers 24-8 in the period en route to a resounding 75-55 victory in the first round of the SEC Tournament.

Game 4: No. 11 Florida 60, No. 14 Auburn 50

Wednesday’s nightcap was a hotly contested matchup between Florida and Auburn as neither team necessarily pulled away. In the end, the Gators did so in the final minute as they held on to take down the Tigers and advance to the second round of the SEC tournament.

Round 2

Game 5: No. 8 Vanderbilt 84, No. 9 Tennessee 76

The opening game of the second round saw an in-state matchup in the eight-nine game with Vanderbilt winning 84-76 over Tennessee. The Commodores created a margin in the first quarter and then another in the third, one that reached as much as 21, that they’d keep throughout the remainder of the win after big performances by Mikayla Blakes (24 points), Iyana Moore (23 points), and Khamil Pierre (16 points, 15 rebounds). Now, with that win over the Lady Vols, Vandy will advance to the quarterfinals against No. 1 South Carolina.

Game 6: No. 5 Oklahoma 70, No. 12 Georgia 52

Behind a game-high 22 points and eight rebounds from junior center Raegan Beers, Oklahoma (24-6) dominated Georgia (13-19) in nearly every metric Thursday. Beers finished 9-of-14 from the floor as the Sooners outscored the Bulldogs 38-18 on points in the paint to secure its eighth straight win and advance to the SEC Tournament quarterfinals against No. 4 Kentucky at 2:30 pm ET, Friday.

Game 7: No. 7 Ole Miss 85, No. 10 Mississippi State 73

Matchups between Mississippi State and Ole Miss are always lively, no matter the sport. Thursday in the women’s tournament was no different. And as they did during the regular season, the Rebels took down their in-state rivals to advance in impressive fashion. Three different Ole Miss players were in double figures, led by Kennedy Todd-Williams and Madison Scott with 20 points each.

Game 8: No. 11 Florida 63, No. 6 Alabama 61

The first upset of the weekend is here as Florida took down Alabama. The Gators are not currently projected in the NCAA Tournament nor are they on the bubble per ESPN. In order to be included in the field, winning out in Greenville. Two games down, three to go.

Quarterfinals

Game 9: No. 1 South Carolina 84, No. 8 Vanderbilt 63

The fifth-ranked Gamecocks easily dispatched the eighth-seeded Commodores in their first game in the 2025 SEC Tournament on Friday. Junior forward Chloe Kitts led top-seeded South Carolina (28-3) with a game-high 25 points on 12-of-14 shooting and 10 rebounds, while sophomore guard MiLaysia Fulwiley and senior forward Sania Feagin added 15 and 13 points, respectively. Vanderbilt was led with 20 ppints from freshman guard Mikayla Blakes. The Gamecocks advance to the tournament semifinals against No. 5 seed Oklahoma.

Game 10: No. 5 Oklahoma 69, No. 4 Kentucky 65

The Sooners produced the first upset of Friday’s quarterfinals behind a double-double from junior center Raegan Beers, who scored 20 points and pulled down 11 rebounds. Oklahoma outscored Kentucky 43-34 in the second half, taking advantage of the Wildcats’ 20 turnovers and 4-of-23 shooting from 3-point range. Kentucky was led by a game-high 29 points from senior guard Georgia Amoore. The fifth-seeded Sooners advance to play top-seeded South Carolina in Saturday’s tournament semifinals.

Game 11: No. 2 Texas 70, No. 7 Ole Miss 63
Date/Time: March 7th, 6:00 PM ET
Channel: SEC Network

What looked like a blowout turned into a classic as Ole Miss erased a 15-point fourth-quarter deficit against Texas. The Rebels responded to nearly each punch the Longhorns threw down the stretch, but it wasn’t quite enough. Texas was able to hold on and win, 70-63, even after SEC Player of the Year Madison Booker fouled out with a minute to go.

Game 12: No. 3 LSU 101, No. 11 Florida 87
Date/Time: March 7th, 8:30 PM ET
Channel: SEC Network

Without Flau’jae Johnson and with Bob Starkey serving as acting head coach, LSU dominated Florida en route to the resounding 101-87 victory. Aneesah Morrow had a monster day for the Tigers, dropping 36 points and pulling down 14 rebounds to lead the charge.

Semifinals

Game 13: No. 1 South Carolina 93, No. 5 Oklahoma 75

South Carolina earned the one-seed via a coin flip but have certainly played like the top team in the SEC. Saturday brought an 18-point win in the semifinals against Oklahoma to advance to another SEC Championship game. Joyce Edwards was massive coming off the bench, leading both teams in scoring with 21 points.

Game 14: No. 2 Texas 56, No. 3 LSU 49

On the losing end of the coin flip, Texas too took care of business on the bottom half of the bracket. Sunday’s game will not be decided by a coin though as the Longhorns are now in the SEC Tournament championship vs. South Carolina. A great victory for Vic Schaefer’s squad in the program’s first season in the conference.

SEC Tournament Championship

Game 15: No. 1 South Carolina 64, No. 2 Texas 45
Date/Time: March 9th, 3:00 PM ET
Channel: ESPN

On Sunday, South Carolina dominated Texas 64-45 to secure its third straight SEC Tournament Championship. Chloe Kitts led the charge for the Gamecocks, tallying a team-high 15 points and nine rebounds. With the win, South Carolina has an excellent chance of securing a 1-seed in the NCAA Tournament.
