‘Big Brother 16’ live feed spoilers: Strategic mode cowboy and a possible flip

Who would’ve ever imagined that a man who refers to himself as “Beast Mode Cowboy” would actually be responsible for turning the tide in the “Big Brother” house? Trust us when we say that we are just as surprised as you are by the events of the past several hours in the house.

Here’s a quick summary of everything crazy that happened in the house last night. Caleb started things off by explaining that he didn’t understand why they kept getting rid of numbers on the Bomb Squad’s side. First, it was Devin; then, it was Amber; now, it’s Zach. He was willing to along with it, but he didn’t understand the logic. While Caleb may be oblivious about the Detonators, this is still the smartest thing that he’s ever said in the game.

Eventually, the logic of Caleb’s argument spread, and eventually the Detonators (Christine included) all seemingly decided to get rid of Jocasta this week, and therefore keeping Zach to live another day. Who knows? Things flipped so quickly that they could flip back again, but we feel like this is a smart move, especially with the Double-Eviction coming tonight. Zach won’t nominate anyone in his alliance if he wins Head of Household, and Jocasta would. She has no reason not to. (We know it’s unlikely that she’ll win, but anything can happen in some of the luck-based challenges.)

The ironic thing is that Zach slept through most of the campaigning to keep him in the game, and when he awoke, the alliance told him that he’s in good shape, but that Hayden and Nicole were trying to stir things up to get him out of the game. He thanked them, and this was that. We do think that it will eventually be revealed that the Detonators were thinking about getting rid of him, but this is good insurance if he wins HoH tonight.

What do you think about the course of events, and is keeping Zach the right move? Share below, and head over here to get more “Big Brother” updates now! You can also sign up if you want to get more via our CarterMatt Newsletter.
