The 1933 Arizona State Bulldogs football team was an American football team that represented Arizona State Teachers College (later renamed Arizona State University) in the Border Conference during the 1933 college football season. The Bulldogs compiled a 3–5 record (1–3 against Border opponents) and were outscored by their opponents by a combined total of 125 to 73.[2][3]

Rudy Lavik was hired as the team's head coach in July 1933, replacing Ted Shipkey. Lavik had previously served for six years as the football coach at Arizona State Teachers College at Flagstaff (later renamed Northern Arizona University); prior to that, Lavik coached at Colorado State Agricultural College in Fort Collins.[4]

The team captain was Paul Griffin.[5] Earl Pomeroy was an assistant coach.[6] The Bulldogs finished 2–2 at home and 1–3 on the road. With the exception of the Fresno State game that was played in Phoenix, home games were played at Irish Field in Tempe, Arizona.
