Florida State begins the evening in sole possession of third place in the ACC, behind only first-place Duke (10-2) and second-place Notre Dame (9-3). The Seminoles were predicted ninth in the ACC preseason predicted order of finish. Against the current schools in the ACC with a .500 conference record or above, the Seminoles are 4-2 (wins over Duke, North Carolina, Miami and NC State).
Miami is the first repeat opponent for Florida State this season, one of four on the ACC schedule as FSU still wraps up remaining games against two-time opponents Georgia Tech, Wake Forest and Clemson. In the first matchup in Tallahassee on Dec. 21, 2022, sophomore forward Makayla Timpson had a huge performance with 25 points, nine rebounds, four blocks and going 10-of-13 from the floor vs. Miami.
A win over Miami on Thursday would mark FSU’s eighth consecutive season winning 10 or more games in ACC play. The streak does not reflect the COVID-19 shortened 2020-21 season when the full league schedule was not played.
Freshman guard Ta’Niya Latson has scored in double figures in 24 of her 25 games this year. She had an incredible streak of 14 consecutive 20-point games earlier in the season and also owns six 30-point games - an FSU single-season record.
The Seminoles enter Thursday’s road game rated 13th in the latest NCAA NET Rankings.
