why would CBS or UGA need a buyout? Game still gets played, CBS still televises.
This game is contracted to be played on that weekend in Jacksonville and televised by CBS years in advance. If that contract is broken, the injured parties gets compensation.
UGA getting a buyout is obvious. The game isn't worth as much to CBS in a different location. That's why.

UGA getting a buyout is obvious.
