Arkansas baseball announced their 2026 baseball schedule Tuesday. The Razorbacks will have five Southeastern Conference home series and will start the season out at Shriner’s Children’s College Showdown in Arlington, Texas.

It’s the fourth straight season that the Hogs will play in Arlington as part of the team’s non-conference schedule. 

The Razorbacks avoided the other three top four finishers in the 2025 SEC regular season. SEC rivals (LSU, Vanderbilt and Texas). Arkansas also will not play Tennessee, coached by former Arkansas assistant Tony Vitello.

Arkansas will begin their SEC campaign against Mississippi State at home. The Hogs will then host big-time matchups like Florida, March 27-29, and Ole Miss, May 1-3, at Baum Walker.

Arkansas will start their season at the Shriners Children’s College Showdown in Arlington, Feb. 13-15. They will play at Globe Life Field, home of the Texas Rangers.

The Razorbacks travel to South Carolina to face the Gamecocks March 20-22. The Hogs will also travel to Lexington, Kentucky, May 14-16 to finish the regular season where they will face the Kentucky Wildcats. 

Coach Dave Van Horn’s team will also host Oklahoma, May 8-10. It will be the first time the two teams face off as conference opponents.

A key non-conference matchup to watch is an in-state series with the Arkansas State Red Wolves at Baum-Walker Stadium, February 24-25. This will be the fifth meeting between the two teams. Arkansas leads the series 4-0.

Another out-of-conference matchup will be on March 6-9 against the Stetson Hatters. Stetson has made the NCAA Tournament the past two years and is one of 12 teams on the schedule to make the postseason.

The baseball team will continue the tradition of playing in North Little Rock as the Razorbacks will face Arkansas-Pine Bluff April 14 at Dickey Stephens Park, home of the Arkansas Travelers, the Double-A affiliate of the Seattle Mariners.
