With Austin Matelson and Liz Nolan unlikely to evict Julia and James unlikely to evict Meg, John McGuire and Steve Moses now hold all the cards in determining who goes home this week. What should they do? Let’s examine the pros of both scenarios.

Pros of evicting Julia
The obvious upside to evicting Julia is that it strikes a deafening blow to Austin and Liz who have completely ruled the game for the last two weeks. The power of the Austwins threesome only grows with each week they progress further into the game. After tonight’s double eviction, if all three remain in the game they are half of the house and in total control. Austin aside, Julia and Liz are a formidable pair. Tighter than any other pair in the house, Liz and Julia will never evict their sister over someone else. It’s actually quite idiotic that the house has allowed the pair to get this far in the game together — having the chance to evict one of them right now seems like an opportunity that could very well never present itself again.

Pros of evicting Meg
Vanessa has made it clear that since she can’t get James out she has to target Meg to weaken James. John and Steve would be smart to not ruffle Vanessa’s feathers so that she’s convinced of their loyalty to her as a threesome to go up against the Austwins in the coming weeks. John and Steve have very few ties to James. If they evict Meg, they only upset James and even then he will still be targeting Vanessa and the Austwins over either of them. In Vanessa’s words, they’ll minimize the amount of blood on their hands by going along with the rest of the house.
