  Civi uses the CMS for authentication so the question is about configuring Drupal 7 (in your case) with Google SAML IDP.
  
  I've not tried it, but a bit of googling shows a few links that look promising:
  
  * Drupal [SAML Authentication](https://www.drupal.org/project/samlauth) module
  * [Set up your own custom SAML application](https://support.google.com/a/answer/6087519)
