I put some normal midiron Bermuda in my backyard in Peoria last May. It is dormant now, in mid-winter. I did not overseed this year, to avoid the rye competing with the Bermuda roots over the winter.

I think that’s what these turf “experts” need to do. Let the Bermuda base grow strong for a year or so. Then overseed in the next fall for a beautiful green field with a tough base. Probably be much better than what they had on Sunday night.
