The 2025 SEC Softball Tournament is less than a month away, and with the league exapnsion of Oklahoma and Texas, all 15 teams will be participating in the tournament this May.

The top four teams will get a double bye, while seeds five through nine will get an opening-round bye. The 10-15 seeds will start play on Tuesday, May 6 at Jack Turner Stadium in Athens, Georgia, and the tournament will wrap up with the championship game on Saturday at 4 p.m. CT on ESPN.

The SEC softball tournament is not in a set location every year, but rotates around to all 15 schools with Georgia being the host this season. Alabama last hosted in 2021, and the upcoming sites are Kentucky (2026), Ole Miss (2027), Missouri (2028) and Mississippi State (2029.)

There are still three weekends of conference play before the seeding is set and some teams only have two conference series left, but here is how things currently stand heading into the weekend.

To show how deep the SEC is, South Carolina is currently third in the national RPI, but tied for ninth in the conference standings. RPI is not the only factor, but a big factor used by the selection committee in helping determine postseason seeding for the NCAA Tournament. The league will likely have nine or ten teams that will host regionals this season.
