WELCOME BACK to another thrilling episode of The Meat Grinder, your weekly dose of High

School Football in Connecticut.

After a wild (and wet) week of great Thanksgiving games, we've finally reached the 2024 CIAC Football Postseason!

On Tuesday night, Valley Regional/Old Lyme rallied to knock off H-K and, ultimately, punch its Class S playoff tickets. On Wednesday night, Naugatuck out-slugged Ansonia in Ye Olde Valley Rivalry to recapture the No. 1 seed in Class L. Wethersfield went from 0-10 to 9-1, riding QB Cam Righi to a glorious, Class MM-clinching overtime victory over rival Newington.

Forty-eight teams enter, six teams leave. And we're excited to see some new... uh... well... many familiar matchups in Tuesday's quarterfinals. SEVEN, in fact, and potentially more in the coming rounds.

There's lots to discuss -- especially with the tragic death of a Bloomfield Pop Warner player and a number of coaches already announcing their resignations — and 24 games to pick as we continue our march toward the 2024 CIAC championship games in two weeks.

Your host Sean Patrick Bowley is once again joined by Dave Stewart and Scott Ericson as we break down everything that happened on Thanksgiving Week and decide who will advance to Sunday's semifinal round.
