Rankings from AP Poll

The 1945 San Francisco State Staters football team represented San Francisco State College[note 1] during the 1945 college football season.

The Gators did not field a team in 1943 or 1944. During this first post-World War II season, the Gators played a limited schedule. They were again led by head coach , who had also coached the team starting at the midpoint in 1942. They played home games at a field on campus in San Francisco, California, which was later renamed named Cox Stadium. A search of newspapers from 1945 only finds the results for two games, although it is likely the team played more than that. In those two games, the Gators had a record of zero wins and two losses (0–2) and were outscored by their opponents 0–64.
