GW's was our best win (RPI) last week. Now second best after GW lost last week and we beat Xavier.
GW tied with Richmond at 43 with 11 to go. GW loses and our win against them slides further.
Yes, I know ... if we lose to a few more our tourney resume may not matter.
It also hurts cuz Richmond is currently in front of us on bubble too.

all we can do just keep winning and stop worrying about what everyone else is doing. Winning solves all our problems.

No kidding. There's a month to play, some of you guys are going to put yourselves in a very early grave obsessing about each and every individual game involving bubble teams and for er opponents that will ultimately have very little impact on MU's fate.
If MU wins enough down the stretch, finishes third, they will almost necessarily have the wins and resume they need to get in. Worrying about a GW game being tied with 11 minutes to play on February 18th isn't going to do you any good.
oh my god, how are we ever gonna make the tourney if our only "quality" win loses....

Nah more like 17 to 20 minutes
Lol just saw this thread... give the game a chance perhaps? GW won 73-65, and it was close in the second half as it should be vs a quality opponent on the road. GW was only favored by 2, and this is a great result which was never a given.
I think this summarizes things appropriately:

We just have to keep winning. The die was cast long ago on our RPI quality wins.
