Missouri struck first with a 58-yard touchdown pass to Danario Alexander, but that would be the best part of the day for Missouri.

Dobbs would fumble again in the endzone, resulting in Missouri having a chance to take the lead before halftime, but Missouri fumbled on the next play, and Dobbs atoned for his fumble once more with a touchdown. Missouri cut it to 14–10 for halftime, but they would not draw any closer. Navy dominated the rest of the game.June 2010 After halftime, Navy took a 21–10 lead on a Dobbs pass to Bobby Doyle.

However, Missouri could only amass a field goal out of a 95-yard drive. Navy won by a final count of 35–13. Ricky Dobbs took Texas Bowl MVP honors.
