The 1933 Duquesne Dukes football team was an American football team that represented Duquesne University as an independent during the 1933 college football season. In its seventh and final season under head coach Elmer Layden, Duquesne compiled a 10âÂÂ1 record, outscored opponents by a total of 206 to 33, and defeated the Miami Hurricanes in the Festival of Palms Bowl.
Guard George Rado was chosen by the Associated Press (AP) as a first-team player on the 1933 All-Eastern football team. Other key players included tackles Steve Sinko and Armand Niccolai, halfback Howard O'Dell, and Isadore Weinstock.
Layden left Duquesne in December 1933 to become head coach at Notre Dame.
The team played its home games at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
