† 2020 ACC tournament winner As of March 5, 2020 Rankings from AP poll |
The 2019–20 Florida State Seminoles women's basketball team, variously Florida State or FSU, represents Florida State University during the 2019–20 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. Florida State competes in Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The Seminoles are led by head coach Sue Semrau, in her twenty-third year, and play their home games at the Donald L. Tucker Center on the university's Tallahassee, Florida campus.

The Seminoles finished the season with a record of 24–8, 11–7 in the ACC, finishing in fourth place. Florida State reached the finals of the ACC tournament, finishing as runner-up. The NCAA tournament was canceled due to the coronavirus outbreak.[1] Senior Forward Kiah Gillespie went on to be selected in the third round of the 2020 WNBA draft.[2]
