No matter what the applications were, that is definitely overkill
and no wonder your grass in in bad condition.
You're lucky it isn't completely dead!

Kitty has given you good, sound advice, thanks to IFAS.
Take a good sample of what you have and get it checked out
so you don't make another critical mistake.
One of the biggest detriments to a good yard is overwatering.

By managing the irrigation you can force the roots to search deeper for moisture. If you have good roots you will have great grass during the summer with very little water.

In most cases you do not have to water in the winter. My irrigation was not on from January 10th till April 1st. I did monitor rainfall but keep in mind the the grass was dormant.

If anyone has dead sports or short grass then you may check to see if it is a spot for standing water.
