FSU climbed six spots in the AP Poll, making it the fourth-highest mover of the week while giving the Seminoles their highest AP rank since being 11th on Jan. 6, 2020.

Florida State alumna and coach Brooke Wyckoff makes her 18th appearance against Florida either as a head coach (third time), an assistant/associate head coach (10 times) or as a student-athlete (five times).
