Alabama will play 10 SEC series as part of its conference schedule. The Crimson Tide will kick off conference play by hosting Florida March 18-20. Alabama will travel to Starkville, Mississippi, to play the defending national champions, the Mississippi State Bulldogs, March 25-27.
Alabama plays host to Texas A&M April 1-3. The middle of April features back-to-back away series at Ole Miss and Tennessee, April 8-10 and April 15-18 respectively.
April ends with a home series against Georgia April 22-24, followed by a trip to South Carolina.
May kicks off with back-to-back series against rivals, first at home against LSU May 6-8 and then a trip to Auburn May 13-15. The Crimson Tide ends regular-season play at home hosting the defending SEC champions, Arkansas.
