Lauren O’Connell
WhenBig Brother 21cast Analyse Talavera as one of their houseguests, I had to ask myself if the decision-makers weren’t trying to find their own version ofSurvivor: Edge of Extinction’sLauren O’Connell. Both are young women who came from athletic college backgrounds in soccer, but the main difference between the two is thatSurvivor’sversion knows how to play strategically.
I’m not sure what Lauren’s knowledge of the game ofBig Brotheris, but she has shown some of the latent skills in herSurvivorplay required to thrive. She sat in on vital strategic conversations and didn’t lose her cool when she was a candidate to go home multiple times. That kind of pressure is intense within the course of a day; it’s even worse when it lasts for multiple days!
With the exception of one fumble late in the game (one that likely would not have happened in any other season due to the Edge of Extinction twist), she played a greatSurvivorgame in all facets. She is willing to pass out during a challenge to push herself to the limits; just imagine what she can do without having to worry about starvation and the elements!
