For first-year football players, a sure-fire way to keep the offensive game plan simple is to add the 32 Power to your playbook. It's one of the most basic plays, but with a surge from the offensive line, it can also be one of the most effective. Here's how it breaks down out of the T formation.
Left tight end: Blocks the right defensive end to the left side.
Left tackle: Blocks the right defensive tackle to the left side.
Left guard: Blocks the right defensive guard to the left side.
Center: Performs a double-team block on the left defensive guard with the right offensive guard. The block is made to the right side.
Right guard: Performs a double-team block on the left defensive guard with the center. The block is made to the right side.
Right tackle: Blocks the left defensive tackle to the right side.
Right tight end: Blocks the left defensive end to the right side.
Quarterback: Turns to his right at the snap and hands off to the fullback.
Right halfback: Runs to the left flat.
Fullback: Takes the handoff from the quarterback and continues running to the 2 hole between the center and right guard. Because the center has pulled to block the left defensive guard, there should be a nice-sized gap.
Right halfback: Provides the lead block for the fullback through the 2 hole. The right halfback needs to get off the ball quickly in order to make his way in front of the fullback. Because there will be no one to block at the line of scrimmage, his blocking assignment will be the middle linebacker.
