Hoover Met has hosted the SEC Tournament since 1999. It seats 10,800 and can accommodate more than 16,000 with extra patio, banquet, and grassy areas. The venue also includes 12 suites outside of player and staff zones and formerly hosted the Double-A Birmingham Barons, an affiliate of the Chicago White Sox.
Only five SEC programs have won both the National Championship and SEC Tournament in the same year: LSU (2009, 2023), South Carolina (2010, 2011), Vanderbilt (2014, 2019), Florida (2017), and Tennessee (2024). Tennessee was also the first No. 1 ranked team since Miami in 1999 to win the national title.
Four SEC teams reached the 2024 College World Series: Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas A&M, and Florida. This year marks the SEC Tournament debut for Oklahoma and Texas, who joined the conference in 2025. Texas captured the 2025 SEC regular season title.
