† 2024 ACC tournament winner Rankings from AP Poll |
The Seminoles started their season 4–1, with their only loss coming in their rivalry game at Florida. The team won three games in the Sunshine Slam including winning the final in overtime against eighteenth ranked Colorado. However, after that streak, the Seminoles struggled, losing four straight games. Losses included their ACC–SEC Challenge game against Georgia, and their ACC opener against number seventeen North Carolina. They then won two of their last three non-conference games, to finish with a 6–5 non-conference record. The Seminoles won six of their next seven ACC games, with the only loss coming against Clemson. Their schedule became a tougher, and they lost five of their next six games, including losses to third-ranked North Carolina and ninth-ranked Duke. In this stretch they lost lost to eventual last place finishers Louisville. The end of the season was a mixed bag for the Seminoles as they finished 3–3. They again lost to Clemson, but defeated NC State and completed a season sweep of in-state opponents Miami.
The Seminoles finished the 2023–24 season 17–16 and 10–10 in ACC play to finish in a tie for eighth place. As the ninth seed in the ACC tournament, they defeated eighth seed Virginia Tech in the Second Round before losing to first seed North Carolina in the Quarterfinals. They were not invited to the NCAA tournament or the NIT. This marked the third straight season the Seminoles did not participate in post-season play.
