Previous season

The Tigers finished the ACC regular season 40–13 and 20–10 in ACC play to finish as Atlantic Division champions. They were the second overall seed in the ACC tournament and were placed in pool B with Louisville and Miami. They lost to Miami 7–8 and defeated Louisville 8–7, but that was not enough to advance from the pool. They received an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament and were the sixth overall seed. They were selected as hosts of a Super Regional for the first time since 2010. They defeated High Point and Coastal Carolina twice to advance to the Super Regional. They lost twice to Florida and were unable to advance to the College World Series.
