Coach Strausser's lecture-style presentation of the Boise State screen system includes goals of the offense, specific results and things that cause problems for the offense. Keys for the linemen are finishing the block and wearing down the opponent with patience and perseverance. Practicing the run game demands full speed execution. 'Team run' is a segment of practice and focuses on schemes and play coordination. Simplicity is a big part of communicating the system to players. Concepts, not plays, are taught to players. Four base concepts include inside zone, outside zone, pulling and lead concepts. The scheme segment includes numbers, combos, angles and power scheme.
