Big Brother 26 is down to the wire as the Final 3 Houseguests have just one full day left inside the house and the game ahead of the season finale on Sunday, October 13th starting at 9/8c. We’ve got two big questions left in the build up here: who will make it to F2 and who will the Jury pick as the winner of Big Brother? Overnight conversations may have just given us the answer on the first part.
Chelsie has been doing a fantastic job of managing the other HGs and working her way to the end while wielding other HGs’ power and decisions to the benefit of her own game. Why stop that now? Makensy has been a perfect ally for Chelsie and willingly taken out her own allies to move Chelsie’s game forward. But when you’ve reached the end, maybe it’s time to discard your tools.
Now that rounds one and two of the Final HOH have been settled we know that Chelsie won the endurance battle and Makensy bested Cam in the second round. I know, shocking for Cam to lose, right? This guy… Anyway, that means Round 3 will feature Chelsie and Makensy in a Q&A typically featuring answers from the Jurors and I expect that to be back this year.
Chelsie knows these HGs and how they think, as she’s demonstrated all season. Meanwhile Makensy has had some of the worst reads of the game and HGs of the entire season. Sure, she could fall backwards into a win in R3, but I’m giving the advantage to Chelsie to win that comp and make the final cut.
Should Makensy win R3 I fully expect her to take Chelsie to the end with her. Would Chelsie do the same? Well I certainly don’t think Chelsie would be willing to risk her game at this point and throw R3 so she doesn’t have to cut either of her allies. She’ll fight for the R3 win and if she does, well then, according to what she said last night she already knows who she’d cut.
Talking with Cam, Chelsie told him that she’s going to fight to win R3 and if she does then she wants to take him to F2. That’s a bold claim to make if she doesn’t really plan to honor it and that’s why I think she’s serious. She could have dodged the topic and avoided an answer, but she didn’t.
If Chelsie wins Round 3 on Sunday night then I think she’s serious that she’d cut Makensy and take Cam. And why wouldn’t she? Cam has won just one competition and has been a non-factor to the entire game. He’s the Victoria (BB16) of the season this time around. Nice guy, but as useful as a bump on a log for his allies.
Should Chelsie cut Makensy then I still think Makensy would vote her to win over Cam. She won’t vote bitter, despite it being hard to blame her if she wanted to in that rushed situation. A Cam versus Chelsie should be the easiest decision of the season for the Jury and Chelsie has to know it. It’s the right choice and I think she’ll make it.
Who do you think Chelsie would take to the Final 2 if she won Round 3? Cast your vote below and tell us why!
