1933 Dixie Rebels football team

In its first season of intercollegiate football, albeit with a mostly veteran team from the 1932 Jefferson Rangers football team, Dixie compiled a 2–4 record with victories over Abilene Christian and Austin, though they scored just one touchdown in each win.

The head coach of Dixie was Nick Dobbs, and was assisted by Jim Hamrick, the captain of the 1932 Jefferson Rangers.

On October 27, Dobbs resigned prior to the season finale and was replaced by Hamrick.

Dixie University was created by Nick Dobbs in collaboration with the Somerville Law School executives as a new college to transplant his football team-without-a-home Rangers.
