I have this weed growing in different areas of my yard. Where I notice it most is along the slab of my house when I weedeat. Tried getting a bottom, side, and top picture to help identify.

If this is the dreaded torpedo grass, I'm guessing my only option is spot treat with glyphosate.

I don’t think so, looks more like young centipede, but maybe carpet grass or Bahiagrass? Send photo to Dr Ron Strahan, weed and turf professor with LSU AgCenter, rstrahan@agcenter.lsu.edu, he’ll likely be able to ID it for you from the photos. Let us know what he says, curious myself.
