In what is likely one of the most obvious Second Chance picks ever, Josh lost in a tiebreaker to Drew Basile back in June in what was Drew’s third victory.
Overall Thoughts: There was a significant amount of consternation online when these pairings were announced, with a number of armchair pundits feeling that this semifinal was overly strong compared to some of the others. Interestingly, the prediction model doesn’t quite seem to agree. It thinks Enzo has a 41.5% chance of victory, compared to 30.5% for Zoe and 28.0% for Josh.
