That sounds like the variation on the "Oh shit, I have an exam and I haven't been to class all term" panic dream I've had in the past.
Recently I had a dream where I was the lecturer and hadn't prepared, but--and this is a comment on how much more control over my dreams I appear to have nowadays--after a few moments of panic I thought, "Hey, wait a minute! I'm the instructor. I can lecture on anything I want for an hour. No problem! I know this subject backwards and forwards."
I must have been one of those obnoxious tenured faculty members who doesn't care, because they don't have to.
