Hogna carolinensis (?)
Hello Rob, I was just perusing through some of these pictures and happened upon this individual. Judging by the shape of the cephalothorax, this appears to be a Hogna carolinensis instead of a Geolycosa species. Geolycosa tend to have a more doomed "forehead." There is always confusion since both species will burrow.

 
GB Edwards gave me Geolycosa.
