The SEC football schedule for the 2025 season will be released next week, according to an announcement from ESPN and the SEC.

Tough road schedule for 2025.
True road games will be ND, Arky, Missouri, LSU, and Texas.
Especially difficult compared to past seasons as the hard OOC game is on the road (ND @ Sound Bend) AND we lose the neutral site game against Arky which becomes a road game. In previous odd years, we played the P4 road game along with having the Dallas game be a "road" game, so we only really had 4 true road games. This year will be 5.

This will be the first time that we have 5 true road games against Power 4 opponents since playing 5 SEC road games in the all-SEC pandemic 2020 schedule and only the 2nd time since joining the SEC in 2012. We usually would have 7 home games, 4 road games, and 1 neutral site game against Arkansas.

With this very tough road schedule, I think the most winnable road games are against Arkansas and Missouri. If we cannot even beat Notre Dame and Texas at home, it will be even harder to win in South Bend and Austin. We are 0-6 in Baton Rouge, and 5 of those losses were by 12+ points each. For these reasons, I think our ceiling is 9-3, and that will require going 7-0 in home games and 2-3 in road games.

the Ags have some serious "hide the women & children" history at those road sites

While "for these reasons" brings a smile every time I see it, I'd shake up the concluding language to the extent you want to personalize it.

The home schedule includes USCe (Sellers R2), Freeze (who always has his teams ready to play A&M) and UF (they aren't a patsy with Lagway @ QB).

Stock the liquor cabinet well, Ags!

Notre Dame will be replacing several guys including their QB. Doubt they are a better team next year.

We went 2-2 in the 4 road SEC games last year. Could see that taking place again.

3-1 this year SEC home games. That could improve to 4-0 next year. Actually have a couple of nice games.

Schedule release date.

Eh. Notre Dame and tu don't have a home field advantage. Their fans enjoy football but it's not an intimidating place to play. I would argue the same for Mizzou because that will likely be an early kickoff. The Arkie game will be tough. They play well at home.

All to say I don't think the home-away flip this year automatically makes our schedule harder. Now if we were flipping and going to Ole Miss, Alabama, Tennessee, etc. I'd feel very differently.

What about sec opponents for 26?

I don't think a decision has been made on number of SEC games (9 vs 8), structure (e.g. pods), etc. for 2026. I could be wrong though. Either way I wouldn't think we'd know about 2026 until this time next year with the exception of pod announcements, if we go that way. I could see the "pod reveal" being a big summer PR drop.

Notre Dame and Texas are both coming off 11-1 regular season finishes and CFP appearances. Yes, Notre Dame and Texas will lose some starters to the NFL draft, but it will still be tough to beat either of these teams on the road. I agree that Missouri is not an intimidating place to play. Missouri went an undefeated 7-0 at home, but all 5 of their home wins against Power 4 opponents were decided by 7 points or fewer. Arkansas has not played well in home games against Power 4 opponents. Dating back to a 49-26 home loss to Alabama on 10/1/2022, they have lost 9 of their last 11 home games against Power 4 opponents, and 6 of those home losses were by 10+ points each. That's why I think Arkansas is our most winnable road game.

I completely agree. I think we can go 4-0 in SEC home games and 2-2 in SEC road games for a 6-2 SEC finish. If we can do that, our road game at Notre Dame could determine if we finish 9-3 or 10-2 and if we make the college football playoffs.

Certainly our toughest schedule since 2019. We will have to be at our very best to compete.

This will be a losing season

You know, that dark period before the light

of again going 8 and 4 the next season

All schedules, easy or hard, are challenging for our Aggies. Haven't we learned that by now?

Would prefer if they swapped the LSU and t u. Games.

Notre Dame will be breaking in a new secondary, half of their D-line, and will have a new QB. I think that game is a 50/50 toss up until we know what each team does in the portal.

Notre Dame having a new QB and losing several guys to the draft last year did not seem to hurt them this year.

Somehow, I think they will still be a top 10 team (and deservedly so) when we play them.

Another 8-4 year

Mediocrity forever

Bump.
