    Pre emergent early an often. Never found anything that would kill goose grass or khaki weed without killing grass.

      Goosegrass loves highly compacted soils, so aerating more often will help in the future. It is also a prolific seed producer, so pre-emergents would be wise next spring to keep it from coming back. Ronstar or Spectacle would be the best pre-emergents for it.

      ^^ This. Try spot spraying it with 5-8oz / gallon of roundup. I know you said you used round up, but I'll bet it was either the ready to use or it was a 2 oz/ gallon mix.

        You can only put out so much pre emergent per 1000 sq ft per year without harming your Bermuda.

          Monument will kill it but it's gonna cost you. I think trimec has a formula for crabgrass and goosegrass.

            yeah, as label directed. same for msma. last go round with msma I used a tincy bit more. seems it might have done the trick. we'll see.
            I've got some adjuvant/surfactant ordered, maybe that will help.

              Use dawn soap as your surfactant.
