Ground beetle of some sort

Eudicella
Yesterday I lifted up the piece of wood I have in our yard and found two decent sized ground beetles. One was dead (and it had a bigger set of mandibles and looked slightly different) but this one was very much alive (and very fast!)

I am guessing it eats crickets, so I half killed a cricket and threw it in there with it.

It either escaped or dug a hole

I am guessing the later as I cannot see it today
