    COLUMBUS, Ohio - It is spring break in Columbus...at least at the end of the week it will be, and that is when Ohio State will leave for a week of games in Bradenton, Fla. The Buckeyes depart Thursday, will practice Friday in Bradenton and then start a seven-games-in-seven-days schedule Saturday with a 3 p.m. game against Harvard at the IMG Academy Park.

    Ohio State's RPI is 115 right now

    Bucknell 203
    Dartmouth 125
    Northern Iowa 251
    Bradley 109
    St Louis 267
    Army 225
    Kansas 174

    its pretty early in the season so the RPIs probably dont mean too much right now, but losses to teams in the 200+ range are killer

    If the Buckeyes lose more than 2 of these next 7 games we could be in for a long season.

    The teams we are playing in Bradenton are just not that great.

    Kansas is the best team in this series and they arent that good, 6/7 should be easy here but considering how the bullpen has done in the last few weeks anything can happen
