How Every Big Brother Winner could have LOST

Winners are some of the greatest Big Brother players of all time. But today, let's take a rewind and look at to how each of these "greats" could have lost the game. For some, it's as simple as one person winning a competition. For others, it's a bit more complicated, so join me as we look at how all 22 winners of the show could have lost through their own unique circumstances.

Also for Ian, if Boogie hadn’t won the first coach’s competition which gave Ian safety, I’m convinced the house would have tried to vote him out because of how annoying he was acting that first week.

[@jamesmcallister8124]

They definitely would have. Willie was more than set on putting Ian up since he didnt mix with the house well. Also means who knows how far Willie Hantz would have gone if he didnt have to nominate Frank that week

[@TTTNeptune]

That’s why I’m actually happy Ian won. People only wanted to vote Ian for being annoying. Ian was actually good for half of the peoples games as well.

[@W4TSKY]

@@TTTNeptunebut it's funny/ironic because Ian even "mapped out" how he'd win big brother on paper (you can find a pic if you google it) and he literally wrote "week 1: watch try hards crash and burn" and that would've been him if it weren't a special season with the coaches and Boogie chose to save him

[@raheemfielder-bey998]

Cody was so well positioned he wouldn’t have gone home. Nicole, Memphis, Dani, and possibly Tyler would have gone home over him if he was on the block. Cody’s only danger spot was if he didn’t win final 4 veto.

and really quick-- In Big Brother 24, Taylor loses if A. Paloma doesn't walk, or B. the eviction when Paloma DOES walk still happens. and also likely, if Turner wins the Final HoH, he'd take Monte. And in Big Brother 25, Jag likely loses if Matt or himself doesn't win the power to bring him back into the game. He was already evicted 10-0 in Week 4, it's just a matter of could him and/or Matt convince Cory or Cirie to use it on Jag.

It's funny you compare BB to Mario Party. The Draft I do every year with my friend group I theme around Mario Party. The person who picks the First Boot gets a "First Boot" Star, there's a "First Juror" Star, "Winner", "AFP", "Most Comp Wins", "Overall Best Lineup", and "Runner Up". It's a lot of fun, and a unique way to play a Big Brother Draft!

Yes. Also if Spencer wins final HOH, he was taking GinaMarie. GinaMarie was still taking Andy, mostly since she knows/ figured out she loses even against Spencer, and prefered Andy winning.

[@thegoldenarcanine]

[@khntou4178]

That rewind twist was as bad as the coup d' etat honestly. Imagine winning absolute power with both HOH and POV wins then being stripped of that and being evicted in the same week. Surprised Frankie was such a good soort about it, but I still don't think he wins against Derrick. His lies and backstabbing would have caught up with him with the jury.

[@DVal-bl7hm]

To be honest, I'm pretty sure Frankie was pretty upset with the rewind twist. It's largely why he didn't respect Cody's BB16 game so much, and why he wanted Victoria or Derrick to win at that point.

[@McJiggyWiggy]

I remember Adam told the jury he was donating something like half his winnings to charity, and that was a huge manipulation because people were switching votes over it, he actually kept all the money

[@Leila1259]

Scottie has said that he was planning on voting for Tyler to win, but after Kaycee won the final HOH he decided to vote for her

[@mercy1372]

Possible video idea: so many (and I mean many) bb winners had safety/immunity for either the first eviction or first week in the game which is such a weird pattern that I haven’t seen discussed (going on 7 years in a row) 23- Xavier was saved by Christian in the wildcard comp 22- Cody was the first hoh 21- michie was the camp leader and therefore ineligible to be the first banished 20- Kaycee was granted immunity by Swaggy C 19- Josh won the competition that decided the nominees (Cameron, Christmas, and Jillian lost and were nominated). He ALSO got the golden apple of safety that gave him immunity for the day 7 eviction 18- Nicole won the first hoh 17- Steve won the veto which took himself off the block 14- Ian’s team was safe so he wasn’t up for eviction, and later that week, the first time there was an actual vote, Boogie won the coaches comp and gave Ian immunity 13- Rachel was the first hoh 12-Hayden was the first hoh 8- Evel Dick wasn’t eligible to be nominated cause all 3 “enemies” from the season twist were granted immunity for the first eviction Those are just the seasons I can think of off the top of my head, there’s probably 1 or 2 more

[@Ethanimale]

Wow actually incredible pattern that ive never seen recognized, that’s really really cool!

[@redkingdom15]

#Roadto10k You deserve it man, great video!

[@julianbigelow2794]

There are many instances where Ian could have lost. The first week, if Boogie doesn't win the Coach's competition and gift Ian safety, Ian could have been evicted. At final six, if Ian doesn't win the POV, Ian gets evicted. At final four, is Shane wins the POV or Dan is unable to convince Danielle to use the veto on him, Shane casts the sole eviction vote and sends Ian packing.

that nicole clip at the end is absolutely hilarious

[@DVal-bl7hm]

For BB18, I wonder how the endgame could have been different if Victor did NOT get to go back in the house for the third time and the season simply progresses to final 6. People typically say that Paul was the biggest opportunist from Victor's returns, and they probably are. But I kinda feel like Nicorey also benefitted from Victor coming back his second time. In the actual timeline, when Victor won his way back into the house at final 7B, the house was pitted 4 v 3 : Nicole, Paul, Corey, Victor vs. James, Natalie, Michelle. Without Victor, it is two trios pitted against each other : Nicole, Paul, Corey v. James, Natalie, Michelle. Does James still throw the HOH to Nicole? Is Michelle still Nicole's target? How do the comps break down without Victor? Is it possible Paul plays both sides (Jatalie v. Nicorey) at final 5? Is Nicole still the favorite to win BB18? Seems like a pretty interesting "What if?" to me.

[@pistachiosandpopcorn7146]

Remember though..he was playing for two. Had he been in that house without Daniele...he probably wouldn't have gotten into it much with people. Remember...Jen was going on and on about Daniele and what a cheater she was when Dick poured the tea on her. I don't think the tea would have happened..or the cigarette thing..without Daniele in there. If I remember right..cigarette happened after the tea. And so Jen had an agenda against him from the tea. She would have probably left him alone for the most part without the tea thing. Pots and Pans happened so they would vote Dick out instead of Daniele...was before one of them won the veto. There is a lot to consider when talking about Dick and the help he got. There's no doubt he knew how to play...he knew how to (most of the people in that season were smart enough to consider what dick said makes sense) convince someone that he was a big target..to keep him and they have another week.

[@jacobwilliams1223]

Without Danielle Dick's game is worse off IMO. It's that entire angle of a distant dad trying to redeem himself and connect with her that made America fall in love with him and basically turned America's player (Eric) into his personal pawn. Without Danielle in the house Dick's story becomes a lot less of a sympathetic soap opera and Eric perhaps doesn't have to cave his game for Dick's nearly as hard.

[@khntou4178]

his BB2 game is filled with so much luck and contingencies that really relied on his game of being the easy target to keep around and the right people winning HOH (that Monica HOH is so extremely lucky). Without his amazing game on BB7 I don't think he's really that good among the wide scope of players honestly.

[@totaldramatyler4484]

Actually without the Coup, D Tat, the winner could still be Jordan, but I think most likely Michelle wins, because Russell goes at 9, Michelle targets Chima because she hated Chima, and she just evicted her closest ally. Chima gets' 8th, Jessie gets 7th, because he loses gole and the up-down comp likely. Either Kevin or Lydia go at 6, and the season plays from there. Jordan is in the Final 2 in most every scenario that plays out from here. Even Jordan V Natalie in this situation. Lydia wasn't voting for Natalie ever, and Jeff, Russell, and Michelle would all vote for her to win, since Russell and Jordan never got into that huge blowup.

There is a lot to unpack with that whole season and his win. You have to remember..Daniele being in there is the reason he went off so much on people.

[@kboleyn4946]

If McCrae hadn’t cowered at 6 and kept Elissa safe, that’s the best shot of Andy losing the game. McCrae handed the win to him evicting her.

[@davidmernick7360]

Only if he's on the block against Spencer or GM after veto. They still would have kept him over Elissa or Judd.

[@coherentramblings7326]

For Hayden, at F7, Britney is torn between nominating him or Matt, and Matt screws himself by trying to get Ragen nominated. If he doesn’t do that, we may have seen Hayden and Enzo on the block together. For Nicole, at F7 Natalie was pretty close to siding with Paul and Victor and evicting Corey. Neither of these situations necessarily lead to the winner being evicted, but they at least result in the winner losing their closest ally, thus losing leverage in the game and possibly being evicted in a future week

[@sunnygolightly9996]

BB 24 - Ironically, if Daniel and Nicole never bullied Taylor, Taylor has a big chance of getting evicted while sitting next to Nicole. BB 25 - If Luke was never expelled, Jag's elimination would not be cancelled, and he would've gone home.

[@brandoncardoza]

If Jason wins P3 FHOH, He evicts Lisa. If Nathan doesn’t go against the house and use the POV on Alison, Alison goes home and Jun’s likely only win scenario is sent home pre-jury.

[@brandoncardoza]

If Jacob Heald doesn’t self-destruct that first week and tell Jen that her partner is a snake, Adam and Sheila were slated to be the first couple evicted

[@brandoncardoza]

If Michelle isn’t convinced to use her Co-HOH to go Paul/Josh or if she and Natalie decide not the flip on the No Names, Nicole and Corey go up and one likely goes home and the other is screwed

[@brandoncardoza]

If Tyler manages to get Day/Bay/Enzo to go through w turning on Cody and targeting Daniele, Cody loses two of his strongest pieces and Tyler takes control of the game

[@CometStriderX]

I actually think there was a bigger chance of Cody going home in BB22 one week prior. If Christmas wins F5 HoH, Nicole and Cody are nominated, and if Nicole still wins veto (which is likely due it being BB comics), Enzo is the replacement nominee. Memphis wanted to take Enzo to the end to beat, so he and Christmas vote out Cody 2-1. But yeah, Cody was safe for whole game up until then because the only person he could ever go home against was Enzo and honestly it wouldn't surprise me if he could somehow get Nicole to use the veto on him with how she played that season lol

[@Ethanimale]

True I forgot how close he was to going home at final 5! Christmas was close to winning that HOH too

[@pistachiosandpopcorn7146]

It don't matter. Everything after Keesha's eviction is forgettable anyway.

[@brianregan5933]

The crazy thing is, if Nicole DOES lose that HOH to Christmas, she's pretty much winning the season. Its EXTREMELY likely anyway. She won or came in 2nd in every comp from the final 6 veto only ever losing to Cody. With Cody off the board, she likely takes Memphis out at 4, and goes to a final 3 where she can drag christmas to the end for an easy win

[@CometStriderX]

@@brianregan5933 Yeah, I think you're right. If Cody is out, Enzo probably still gets F4 HoH so then either Nicole wins F4 veto, takes out Memphis and wins the season or Memphis wins F4 Veto (less likely due to his back issues but not impossible as he did well in comps) and he wins the season. Nicole taking Christmas and winning like 8-1 and Memphis taking Enzo and probably barely winning like 5-4 being the only difference.

[@emorces]

For the 2 most recent winners; Taylor could have hypothetically lost if it wasn't for Paloma quitting, however she destroyed alyssa in the comp so I won't count that but she could have lost if Turner won the f3 hoh and evicted Taylor in 3rd over Monte Jag could have lost if there wasn't a twist allowing matt to save him after being evicted in week 3, or if red doesn't reveal he can forgive cam allowing the flip vote on red to never happen leaving jag out the following week, or if he doesn't win a few comps in the mid/end game he can hypothetically be evicted but towards the end game he was rather safe with Bowie and Matt.

One thing that might’ve changed Josh winning is if Jess didn’t use the halting hex and let Cody go home pre-jury, then Jess would’ve been the decided vote where she likely votes for Paul because Jess had a way higher dislike for Josh then Cody did.

Naw. Memphis, Dani and Enzo were all totally loyal to him. David and Christmas weren't really targetting him soon either. Literally only Tyler was after him. And Cody did more to protect Nicole than vice versa. If Cody wanted to send Nicole home at Final 8, Final 6, or Final 4 he easly could have. Maybe even Final 7, although that is less clear. Literally the only time Nicole maybe could have sent Cody home maybe is Final 5. Nicole makes it nowhere near Final 3 without Cody. Cody without Nicole, makes virtually no difference.

[@grantgoffin4774]

@@chevon1920 Cody was 2nd in the veto so he still wins that and saves himself. I think Enzo, Cody, and David collectively boot Memphis still to split up the showmance. Cody won F4 veto already, and still likely boots Xmas. David would probably take Enzo, but Cody almost for sure still wins final HOH, and takes whoever (Enzo likely) and wins. Basically with Nicole out, Cody just wins the only round after F7 he didn't win a comp now, so if safe right to the end regardless. And Tyler 100% still targets and gets rid of Dani at F7 even with Nicole no longer there. He might nominate Cody now (probably does as he was aligned with all of Xmas, Memphis, David, and saw Cody as a threat, and I don't think he would want to target Enzo yet either), but Tyler would want Dani out before Cody, and Dani would go out over Cody as well.

Lisa is the definition of a coaster winner.

[@ryanward5770]

I mean if josh is in final 2 with literally any houseguest other than Paul he loses or if Paul confesses. It was literally the easiest one to give a scenario he loses. He was incredibly lucky to win

False. Josh Martinez is the GREATEST player of all time, he beats everyone in a final 2.

[@neond6740]

14:45 Which is partially why he's a top five winner.

[@fillisc7952]

Honestly, you're off on a lot of these. Several of these you make statements that the winner had no chance of going home, or lofty chances but there's definitely instances out there. For example, if McCrae has more time to process Amanda's eviction or if he believes Elissa over Andy, there's a chance Andy doesn't win that season. Or if Ivette never sends that awful goodbye message to Rachel. And theres WAYYYY more scenarios in which Nicole loses than winning.

[@codys3084]

xavier loses if hannah/tiff win at 6 or 5 as they were targeting him - also if DF didnt basically antagonize azah in the final week and she won final hoh she cuts him

[@jacksonia7724]

Can I be honest? After seeing Erika do that move with convincing janelle, that reassures my thoughts that Erika should’ve won over boogie. Like how are people not realizing that?

[@dembonez19]

For Adam BB9, had Jacob not been such an ignoramus, Adam would've gone home with Sheila first. And there's no way Joshuah would've paired up with Adam over Sheila when Neil left. For Rachel BB11, had Porsche not opened the Pandora's Box that production strong-armed her into opening, Rachel would've had a tough time.

and then BB24 - if paloma doesn’t self evict

[@laurynhurley1472]

if the jury had been sequestered in BB3, Lisa might’ve lost

[@Minecraftlover73]

One of his unpopular opinions is the fact that he believes Lisa still wins with a jury house.

[@whats_holden_up]

For Andy it should be if Amanda won the final 7 veto. If she stays then she would've targeted Andy since she knew Andy was the vote that flipped

[@thetruth-pg5gq]

Andy was one of the worst bb winners next to Jackson and cookout alliance You should do a video of the worst alliances

[@TripleBBBBB]

3 terrible opinions

[@AestheticAlex]

for andy it’s 100% F6 if the hoh or veto holder weren’t stupid and saved or kept elissa safe / took andy out then elissa probably wins

[@dellgilpo4761]

Also if Adam wasn't in the house w/ the worst player in bb history then he would've been out on day 1

[@Agent7300]

Dan got 2nd in the f5 veto, so if Memphis would have lost it he would have been safe any way. I believe BB10 Dan is the only season where you can come up with zero failure outcomes based on the information on the season we have

[@haydenf4562]

The houseguests could’ve easily chose to evict him over Steven week 2

[@Agent7300]

@@haydenf4562 the votes would never have been there it was unanimous for Dan to stay - not to say there werent people considering cutting Dan but there would have never been 5 votes on him. he was safe the whole season

[@cetusthecoolboi769]

Wouldn't BB15 Andy also be another one? I mean Ethanimale was completely unable to come up with a legitimate, realistic reason Andy goes home at any point in BB15 whereas with Dan he was able to at least entertain the idea.

[@Agent7300]

@@cetusthecoolboi769 yeah but the details were wrong in this video as i stated in my original comment - Dan got 2nd in the veto - so iirc the scenario he entertains in this video could never have happened

[@cetusthecoolboi769]

@@Agent7300 I see. It was just the part about BB10 Dan being the only one with zero failure outcomes that stuck out me given BB15 Andy's game.

We all know for a fact that no other winner could ever replicate this winner's untouchable gameplay... ...Josh Martinez

[@bencalebrod]

Surprised you didn't mention America voting out Memphis for BB10. That would've weakened Dan's position a lot and he is very unlikely to win had that happened.

[@loganarnoldkicks4321]

I’m ecstatic our boy Josh Martinez is a pretty sure winner no matter the outcome 😂 I’m also the biggest Nicole Franzel fan ever and I think she also could have possibly lost if Paul owned up to their game in BB18

[@kimani2286]

Josh loses if Paul didn't convince Jessica to not target them that week Josh would've pawn and not Ramsey were Josh goes home

[@grantgoffin4774]

@@kimani2286 Yes. Even Cody and Jess would have targetted Josh over Paul that week if she had them both on the block, and encouraged Mark, Elena, Ramses to do the same. They both hated Josh bigtime at that point, and still had some delusional semi trust in Paul.

[@12354rony]

Just a question, and not that you simply can't, but what is there for Nicole to be a fan of? just curious. To me she was super fake and toxic, everything always about her, latched to the guys and betrayed every single woman ever, never owned up to her villainy and always pretended to be the hero for the audience which is the most obnoxious trend in recent seasons with players who care for reception and online following or 'integrity' more than the game. Neither she nor the people she surrounded herself with were remotely entertaining on 18 and 22, and I found her strategy extremely lacking for me to consider her win satisfying even from that regard. By far my least favorite winner, maybe only Adam below her.

[@grantgoffin4774]

@@12354rony Agreed. Honestly I liked Nicole best on 16.

[@12354rony]

@Steveaga My guy, where did I say she didn't deserve to win over Paul that season? He wasn't much better and his lackluster game def played a role. Nothing you said invalidates her toxic personality or motives for her gameplay and moves (social following, looking good to the public, remember her 'loving' Ian to the cameras after laughing about him with others on 22?) She was the rat floater Andy but on steroids, targeting mostly women while comfortably hiding behind guys, and often finding petty reasoning that felt to me personal. At least Andy owned he was the villain, she never did and it was huge in a lot of fans not being able to root for her at any point. Her strategy was valid, I'll give you that, just not my kind of strategy or gameplay. I LOVE cutthroat strategy, but not when it gets personal, see bbcan 9 or 10 for that matter. There were def more toxic folks in bb history than her, but she's quite up there. I don't hate her per se, hate is a strong word I reserve for the truly few vile people who were on the show, I just do not like her. I certainly don't condone the nasty things going on social media though. Hope I made myself clear here.

[@craigresendes2403]

If Kaysar doesn’t throw the HOH to Jennifer, does Maggie still win? Knowing Kaysar he does follow through with his plan to backdoor James, so the Friendship is still intact and James is now gone. Janelle still wins the next HOH, but now that Jennifer isn’t the target, she most likely nominates Maggie and Ivette, probably keeping them both on the block with the POV. In that case, who goes? April and Jennifer are obviously voting to keep Maggie, and Beau keeps Ivette, but what do Howie, Kaysar, and Rachel do? I know they all hated Ivette, but they all also recognized Maggie’s status as the leader of the Friendship. If they all vote Maggie out, then she loses. Even if Beau votes to keep Maggie, it’s a 3-3 tie which Janelle breaks. Should Ivette be evicted, then Maggie now doesn’t have her comp shield in Ivette (she really benefited from Ivette winning the Final 4 veto, if she doesn’t, April evicts Ivette and then Janelle takes April to the end and wins). Beau still wins the next HOH and we can assume he still targets Rachel (unfortunately we most likely lose the POLYESTER HAIR moment, which is just a shame); April probably targets Kaysar on her HOH (this is assuming of course Kaysar loses these HOH comps). Howie’s HOH, he probably puts up April and Jennifer, which I can see April going because of her animosity with Howie. With Ivette gone, who wins the Final 5 HOH? Janelle? Beau? Janelle still wins that POV and the subsequent HOH, so she’s still guaranteed Final 3. I don’t see a world in which Maggie’s in the end in that case.

[@bryce5281]

I mean Lisa loses if Danielle or Jason win final hoh, no?

[@DungForever]

Jackson winning comps where we have to rely on production to give us the times just makes things HIGHLY suspicious. These comps are literally just there for production to give the win to whoever benefits their edits. I still don't think Jackson was nearly as fast as they made him seem.
