BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Southeastern Conference announced Wednesday the 2024 conference baseball schedule for its 14 member institutions.
Following four weeks of non-conference play, the SEC slate begins Friday, Mar. 15 and spans 10 consecutive weekends through Saturday, May 18.
After finishing top five in the league in back-to-back seasons for the first time since 2002-03, Auburn opens its conference schedule at Vanderbilt from Mar. 15-17 and hosts Arkansas in its SEC homer opener from Mar. 22-24. The Tigers remaining home series include matchups against Tennessee (Apr. 5-7), Kentucky (Apr. 12-14), Ole Miss (May 3-5) and Alabama (May 16-18).
