Anyone else have a tough time sleeping before big games like this?

I slept quite terribly, but it's only going to make me MEANER and GREENER for the game tonight!

I slept a little bit but have really been extra amped up the last few days. So far today I can honestly say I haven't done anything productive at work as I'm waiting til the start of the game.

I'm bringing a buddy of mine who is a UT alum and die hard Longhorns fan to the game. It's his first time attending anything NT related and he's really excited to experience it.

I'll see your UT alum and raise you a TT alum that was Raider Red while there. How's that for pulling in a non-Mean Greener for a big game?

No sleep at all for multiple reasons. MEAN GREEN game that sadly i will be missing out on which makes me

And a playoff volleyball game on Friday that my girls are competing in.

So lets get the extended weekend started with a "W" MEAN GREEN Then my Warriors will keep it going on Friday!

Old, rich white guys' meeting in 15 minutes. Beloved high school classmate died yesterday afternoon. Managers throwing "teaching moment" busywork crap in my in-box. Tonight's game just isn't much on my mind right now. The clock is moving slowly. It'll all be better in a few hours.

Sitting in my cube.... trying to get through the day so I can get up to Denton.... come on clock... Going to have to at least try to et some work done today of course, just don't know how successful I will be.

Right there with you! Counting down the seconds...

Figured I wasn't the only one!

Because I am a mature (maybe not that mature)reasonably intelligent human being, why should I lose sleep over something that should not be that important in the overall scheme of things? I don't know why, Harry, but I have and thanks for informing me that I am not alone. I'm showing this post to my wife who is no football fan and thinks I'm crazy.

Went to bed at 4, woke up at 6, then back to dozing until 8, bathed and fed the kids, tossed and turned for another 2 hours until I finally gave up. Huge headache. A win over Rice is the only cure.

Ok

Now TONIGHT I'll have trouble getting to sleep.

Ok

Now TONIGHT I'll have trouble getting to sleep.

See...I agree with this. No trouble sleeping the night before at all...but, tonight I may just never go to bed! Still fired up and enjoying the "afterglow".... Football game people, I am talking about the football game!
