Oklahoma leads SEC softball tournament predictions
Oklahoma’s offense is heating up, making them the top pick for the SEC softball title.
The SEC’s bid to secure its automatic berth to the NCAA softball tournament will be delayed.
Due to inclement weather in Athens, Georgia, the start of the highly anticipated SEC softball championship game between Oklahoma and Texas A&M will not start on time at Jack Turner Stadium.
To make the championship game, Oklahoma crawled all the way back from an early 6-1 deficit against Arkansas in Friday’s semifinals, thanks to a three-run, walk-off home run from Gabbie Garcia. Meanwhile, Texas A&M has looked like the team to beat in the tournament, as it run ruled both Texas 14-2 on Friday and South Carolina 12-4 on Thursday.
Saturday’s game between the Sooners and Aggies was already impacted by adverse weather, as the SEC moved up the first pitch for the game from 5 p.m. to 1 p.m. ET.
USA TODAY Sports will provide updates on the weather delay. Follow below:

Positive signs… rain has stopped BUT there is more rain in the area.
Is there a large enough weather window to get the game in?!? As a great man once said… we’re about to find out pic.twitter.com/q3Px52HssU
