State and UK was a pretty good game and gave them an opportunity to feature two schools who haven't been on CBS very many times. It shouldn't be that difficult to grasp why it was on.

because ratings for LSU/OM dwarfed that of kentucky/state, and all networks care about is ratings

If you look at the TV ratings, you'll see higher ratings for the State @ Kentucky game.

A National Network Broadcast almost always has more than a National Cable/Sat game.

Besides, LSU would've gotten beat in the daytime.
