The 1945 Miami Naval Air Station football team represented United States Navy's Miami Naval Air Station (Miami NAS) during the 1945 college football season. Led by head coach Bill Glassford, Miami NAS compiled a record of 1–2. The team began play in early November after the Miami Naval Training Center (Miami NTC) team dissolved due to transfers and discharges from the service. Five regular members of the Miami NTC team joined the Miami NAS team.[1] Miami NAS had scheduled games with Bainbridge and Little Creek, but the team disbanded in early December before those contests could be played.[2]
