‘Big Brother 16’ live feed spoilers: Veto players and a varied competition

Today, the “Big Brother 16” houseguests are gearing up for what is a pretty important Power of Veto Competition … and it may also be the first one that features many players who don’t actually want to use the necklace.

While the week started out looking like either Caleb or Frankie could be the target more than Zach, we’re starting to worry a little bit now for our Zach Attack here based on the way things are sorting out. Nicole is the Head of Household, and she seemingly does not want to put a target on herself. Traditionally she is not the sort of player interested in making a big move, so if she wins, there will probably be very little that happens.

We would say, though, that this is for the most part a favorable draw for Zach in the competition. He’s got Jocasta, Nicole, Victoria, and Christine who he could pretty easily beat, and then the only major competition here is Caleb. Granted, Caleb also has little motivation to actually win this, and it’s also possible that he could use it to Veto Zach, depending on who could be the replacement nominee. (Zach may try to convince him out of, though, once again believing that he is safe.)

As for Jocasta going home, it’s a possibility if Zach does get the Detonators plus Caleb to stick with him … in the end, though, she’s probably not winning the Veto, and she’s a non-entity in the house with little allies and a terrible ability to perform in competitions. She’s basically even more Chef Joe than Chef Joe was in this game.

We’ll have the results of the comp. a little later in the day, so of course be on the lookout for that in the attached sidebar. Also, you can sign up now in the event that you want some further news and updates courtesy of our official newsletter.
