The egg sac on the back of the abdomen sure does say wolf spider. For example, the nursery web spiders look similar. However, they carry the egg sac in their jaws. Wolf spiders are very difficult to identify by picture. First ask, is it big? Some of the hogna species are big, like the neighboring Carolina Wolf spider. https://greennature.com/tennessee-spiders/
