I would not rip it with a sub soiler. Find a disc or plow. Plow then disc to break up the sod. I plow 8 inches on fresh breaking and disc the top four inches. This way most of the sod is completely turned under and can rot till fall before you start to rip it up with a deep tiller. Then it takes less passes to make it smooth enough to seed a crop into it. As someone else mentioned, seed it in oats this year, take of the crop, then work really well in fall and next spring, seed wheat at this time and have a much better crop. I did 3 acres a couple years ago and ended up with 6 45 gallon drums of wheat. It is really hard to work and seed small patches because the equipment needs a larger area to make a nice turn. A one acre piece is best done with a 3 point tiller. Work it 2 times maybe more if the tiller doesn"t chop it fine. Most times it will be your fastest and best way on small patches.
