The Yellow Jackets and Seminoles split four meetings during the 2003 season. Florida State won two of three during the regular season in Atlanta, and Tech eliminated FSU in the final day of the ACC Tournament in Salem, Va. In the regular season in Atlanta, Florida State scored five runs in the top of the seventh inning to break open a 2-1 game en route to a 7-1 win in the opener. Tech took a 5-4, 10-inning win in game two of the series with Mike Nickeas' game-winning single. The Seminoles won the series finale, 12-7, by scoring eight unanswered runs after the Yellow Jackets built a 7-4 lead. Georgia Tech won the final meeting of the year, a 10-7 win in the final day of the ACC Tournament.
