Okay so I'm so behind it's not even funny, but I'll do my best to catch up with the pairs I know. I'll add the rest when I'm not at work and I can watch their interviews.
First of all I am LIVING for the fact this is a three tribe BvW season. I've always wanted to see how this would play out and it's going to be interesting to see the emotional acrobatics that you have to have when eight people on your tribe have loved ones going to tribal but you don't. It should make for interesting interpersonal dynamics or could cause bad blood.
Now to the people I know well.
Jared and Jesse -
Jared - When it comes to Jared. I honestly don't get it. If people did their research he continues to make it far and/or win TIME and TIME again. When Vic told me about Palmyra and said Jared may apply, I knew that he would be my first target. (Didn't happen but lol whatevs) I believe Jared is going to have the easier time integrating and changing his game around, but he's going to need to adapt and play as a new player if he's going to make it far. He could DEFINITELY be a hit or a miss in terms of longevity.
Prediction: Finalist
Jesse - Definitely the one of the two I'm more excited to see play. Whereas Jared is calm and cool and keeps a level head, Jesse is such a spaz. He's so crazy and loud and obnoxious and weird it just becomes endearing. However where I gel with these kinds of personalities, (mostly cause I'm crazy and loud and obnoxious and weird) to go far, Jesse is going to need to read the room. If people don't like his antics, he's going to need to learn to adapt. But I think with the combination of not having a real family member in the game, Jesse could be first boot of his tribe.
Prediction: Early Jury
Together - Overall I know they made it far in Broher together, but I don't think they're going to both make it to the merge. One is going to go far and the other is going to be a pre-jury flame out. I hope Jesse goes the distance but I think it'll be Jared that makes it far.
Corey and Scott -
Corey: Corey is a really sweet guy if you get to know him, however, there's a lot of excess exterior that you need to break through to get to that point. Corey is a very loyal, but also a very controversial player. He's the type of person that you're not going to have a middle of the road opinion on, you will like him or hate him. Corey has a great shot of being the overly abrasive person that gets brought into an alliance as a shield. I think he will make it far but be one of the first targets come merge
Prediction: Early jury
Scott: Scott is a really fun guy who's great to talk to and definitely means well, the problem with Scott is sometimes he can become aggressively nice. Like Jessica said it can come off as being needy. For Scott to ultimately succeed he's going to need to reel that in and allow himself to step back so that he doesn't annoy anyone to his death. If Scott can do that, I could see him going far. If not, I could still see him going far as a goat. Scott is a wild card for me, but I really want to see him succeed.
Prediction: Mid Jury
Both: If Scott and Corey can both get together in the game, I think they will be unstoppable. Both are loyal, both are social to the point of aggression, and their only deviance is that Scott is more laid back whereas Corey is more forthright. They could definitely both make the end as allies.
Chris and Holli -
Chris: Omg it's my future husband best alliance in Palmyra Chris <3. First of all RIP to having to potentially wait two months before I can talk to his Sgooooey ass. Okay so I love Chris to death, but unless he can find some sexy, fun guy to bro down with (like he did last season) I don't think he's going to do well. He may be seen as too much of a threat and taken out early. I think he'll play a similar game to what he did the first time, which hey, it got him far the first time, so he may stick with it.
Prediction: Despite what I said. Late jury. Cause I love him.
Holli: SCREAMING. I'm already in love with Holli. Holli was interesting in her season of Survivor: Maryland because she wasn't anything special to me, but when we got near the end game I realized that she was one of my faves that I wanted to win. And I think that that is going to help her in the end. Honestly I'll call it now. Holli wins. She's funny, she's underestimated, she's smart and all the while she'll provide amazing confessionals about her strategy. I want to see her go far, and when you're a winner, you go far.
Prediction: WINNER
Together: I don't remember who said it (probs Austin) but I think Chris will have the upper hand just because of the technical aspect but Holli will figure it out how to use Skype and everything quickly and come in just a second behind guns a blazin'. As for if they were to get together later in the game. I think they would work together if they reached a merge, but if they were on opposite sides of the numbers, I don't see either of them jumping ship. They are both stubborn enough to vote the other out.
Casey and Tyler -
Casey: Simply put. Casey's a hot mess. She's paranoid. She's opinionated. She's crazy. And I love her for it. You know that when you get Casey in a season. She will give 110% and fight to the bitter end. Now that passion and craziness will only take her so far. Casey needs to get herself into a solid alliance in the beginning. Otherwise she will suffer the same fate she did her last season.
Prediction: Early/mid pre-jury

Brian W. and Jenna -
Brian w.: Team #AlwaysKissLet me preface this by saying I love Brian. I love Brian to death. He is probably the one person along with Tori that I had actually gotten the opportunity to play with last season. However, I really want to see Brian be more forceful. When I saw Brian play, he went super under the radar to ensure that he would be the last target of his failing alliance (and because of Miller flipping, I say it worked) but I only got to see a lot of passive play from Brian. I really want to see Brian take a stand and fight hard into a majority, but in terms of within his tribe. You can't not love him. He will go far.
Prediction: Late jury
Jenna:

Miller and Lisa -
Miller: This is my favorite picture of Miller at Final Tribal our season:
I'm like halfway excited to see Miller play again. He's a great character and somewhat entertaining, but overall I don't think he's going to play a much different game. He really lucked his way through the pre-merge and if it wasn't for twists Miller would have gotten voted out early. When the merge came along that is when he found his footing. I feel like the same will happen here. Miller will upset people, Miller will cause drama, Miller will go home without Efqa to save him. But hey, maybe lightening can strike twice.
Prediction: Mid Pre-jury
