Your post is dated 1/24. It is normal for your lawn to do dormant in our,"winter."

The cooler weather will also slow down fungus and insect problems
as well as your lawn healing from previous damage.

Far as seeking advice from the cooperative extension now is a good time to do that. A good idea would be fore you to remove a few sq foot of sod at the boarder between what is good and what is bad and take it with you to the cooperative extension. Looking at it will allow then to better tell you what is wrong. After inspection, you can simply replant the sod you removed.

Far as mushrooms. Mushrooms live on dead vegetable matter. They can be living on the rotting roots or even organic soil or fertilizer. In any case they do not cause damage. They only last for a day or two. If, they bother you you can pick them and throw them away.
