The Gators entered the season looking to return to the College World Series after a home regional final loss in the 2022 NCAA tournament.

The Gators would go 3–3 against their first two conference opponents in Alabama and LSU, and defeated Florida State in their annual game in Jacksonville.

Traveling to Tallahassee to play the second of three games against Florida State, the Seminoles evened the series at one win apiece.

The Gators moved to an even 15–15 conference record by the end of the season, winning each of their remaining series against Kentucky, defending national champion Mississippi State, Missouri, and South Carolina, and won the season series against Florida State in Gainesville with a 7–5 ten-inning victory.

In a SEC baseball tournament marred by significant weather delays, the Gators were able to overcome a second-round loss to Texas A&M by winning their next three games, including a semifinal win to avenge their earlier second round loss to the Aggies, to set up a Championship Game against the regular season champion Volunteers.

Florida was able to stymie the prolific Volunteers offense for the first four innings, but ultimately surrendered the first seven runs of the game in a 5–8 loss.

As a result, their season came to a close with a late-night, rain delayed, 4–5 home loss to the eventual national runners-up.
