Bermuda Grass dying rapidly (4 days)

I live in Austin Texas and have Bermuda Tifway 419 in my yard. In the past 5 days my back yard (15 pallets) has been taken over by something. It started as a medium size grayish-green area that then turned brown (yellow) and then crispy brown (yellow) within a probably 2 days. The disease is moving aggressively across my lawn and in 5 days is now invading all areas of my back yard. I am desperate for some insight to protect/repair my lawn and any help would be appreciated!Thank you!Amy Muller

Yikes, Amy! Sorry for not seeing your post earlier. It sounds like you have recently sodded your lawn? If so, how long ago? What is your watering procedure? How much water does your sprinkler system put out (inches per hour), are you really getting the coverage to all areas?
