Since ESPN has the ability to schedule better games on Thursday night
They don't. They have a contract with certain conferences to hold Thursday games during certain weeks, but the conferences set those matchups. The allows the schools to properly set bye weeks or patsy opponents to compensate for the lost practice time. ESPN doesn't get to unilaterally say "this game is going to get played on Thursday night."
