Solid post; a couple of additional points:

- Sod seems to be going for $4 for a 2x5 foot roll at most stores.
- I would also add some fetilizer under the new sod; like Scott's turf builder.

And as Rathji said; water, water, and then more water. Until the sod's roots take hold it is relying on water from above to survive.
