How late is too late to lay bermuda sod?

Hello all! I've done a few searches and couldn't quite find my answer. So my apologies if it's readily available!

We're finishing up a swimming pool in the next couple of weeks, and my formerly beautiful tifway 419 backyard is destroyed is many places. They are going to grade it ready for sod. My question is, should I overseed it with rye or something to hold the turf throughout the winter or go ahead and lay down sod right before everything goes dormant?

It won't be a large amount of area, so I guess I wouldn't be risking too many $$ to go ahead and lay it down, so perhaps thats my answer? Just seeking the pro's opinions! Thanks!
