It sort of depends, but let's assume that
* the package will live in /opt/foo-1.0
* the source tarball is foo-1.0.tar.gz
* the source tarball will unpack itself into ./foo-1.0
If that's true, then its skeleton will look something like
Name: foo
Version: 1.0
Source: %{name}-%{version}.tar.gz
Prefix: /opt
BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-root
[... other headers, %description go here ...]
%install
install -d %{buildroot}%{prefix}
cd %{buildroot}%{prefix} && gzip -dc %{SOURCE0} | tar xf -
[... %clean and any scriptlets go here ...]
%files
%{prefix}/%{name}-%{version}
