Florida State is now a consensus top-5 team, moving up one spot to No. 5 in the Baseball America poll and two spots to No. 5 in the D1baseball poll. Both were released on Monday morning.

The Seminoles (24-7, 9-3 ACC) picked up a series win at Virginia and a midweek road win over Stetson. It was the fourth straight series victory for FSU: at Wake Forest, NC State, Duke and at Virginia.

FSU’s next ACC opponent, No. 3 Georgia Tech, is coming off a series sweep at California. The Yellow Jackets (26-5, 12-3 ACC) also picked up a midweek run-rule victory over Auburn.

The Seminoles will play host to Florida on Tuesday at 7 p.m. (ESPN2). Florida (23-10) lost a series at home against Ole Miss, dropping to 7-5 in SEC play. The Gators are ranked 21st by Baseball America and are unranked by D1baseball.
