The 1945 Great Lakes Navy Bluejackets football team represented the Great Lakes Navy Training Station (Great Lakes NTS) during the 1945 college football season The team compiled a 6–4–1 record, and outscored their opponents 221 to 164. Coached by the legendary Paul Brown, the Bluejackets started the season with a 0–4–1, suffering from a loss of talent as many players were shifted to the west coast to help close the pacific theater of World War II, but once the war ended many men from overseas returned to the boot camp, and the team won their final six games, culminating in a 39–7 defeat of top 5 Notre Dame at home.

The Great Lakes Navy Bluejackets were ranked 20th among the nation's college and service teams in the final Litkenhous Ratings.
