The Hurricanes' season started with a promising 3–0 victory, but they could not carry forward that momentum. They would draw their next two games and lose three of their last four to finish their non-conference schedule 1–3–3. A highlight was a 0–0 draw with then fifth ranked Alabama. The Hurricanes started ACC play well, winning two of their first three games. However, their momentum stalled with three losses to ranked teams. A draw broke the losing streak, but another streak began as Miami lost their last three conference games.
The Hurricanes finished the season 3–10–4 overall and 2–7–1 in ACC play to finish in twelfth place. They did not qualify for the ACC Tournament and were not invited to the NCAA Tournament. Their three wins were a program low for a full season, with only the shortened 2020 season resulting in fewer wins. This was the second year in a row Miami finished with a 2–7–1 conference record, and the third time in Barnes' tenure. After the season, it was announced that Barnes would no longer continue as head coach.
