Baseball team, roster preview for Sooners

After suffering their first series’ loss of the 2025 SEC baseball season last weekend, the Alabama Crimson Tide are now set to resume conference play this Friday night in Tuscaloosa by hosting one of the SEC’s newest teams, the Oklahoma Sooners, for a three-game set.

A ranked opponent, the Sooners will certainly provide yet another test for an Alabama team that had enjoyed a solid start to the season, and are a program that the Crimson Tide are not necessarily as familiar with as others. That is due to the fact that Alabama and Oklahoma have met only seven times before ever, the most recent of which was a three-game series in Norman back in 2018.
