1) We haven't recovered from our hard game last week yet
2) Injuries
3) We had a long flight out
4) We did not come out with the right energy to start the game
....and then the Brian Kelly finisher: "and all that (the excuses that he listed that would be beyond his control) is my responsibility"
"Franklin: We did not handle last week’s loss well. We also lost some players in that game, during the week. Then, everything else. Travel. Everything else. Did not come out with the right energy to start the game. … That’s my responsibility."

But the truth is that he lost because he is not a good coach. And that IS his responsibility.
