What is this infesting my lawn
 
Any ideas what this is getting into my lawn. It started last summer
and it really took hold this spring (northern Ohio). Weed killer has
been no help. Kinda looks like a very coarse grass but crab grass
preventer does not affect it. How to kill this stuff without
replanting the whole lawn?

Hi DH.

It looks like a ryegrass of some sort, possibly an annual. You will
notice rye more now in N Ohio since we've had a cool spring. The
bluegrass hasn't really woke up yet due to low soil temperature.

Look at it again in July and see if it's so noticeable. Crabgrass
preventer won't touch it this time of year btw.
