I really like the results. Especially the clarification on USC (Southern California)

Results:

Creating the perfect super conference in college football involves selecting teams that bring a combination of competitive prowess, strong fan bases, and regional or historical significance. Keep in mind that realignment and conference affiliation can change, so this is a hypothetical scenario based on the landscape as of my last knowledge update in January 2022. Here's a suggested super conference:

Eastern Division:

Ohio State
Michigan
Penn State
Notre Dame
Virginia Tech
North Carolina

Southern Division:

Alabama
Georgia
Florida
Clemson
Auburn
Florida State

Western Division:

Oklahoma
Texas
USC (Southern California)
Oregon
LSU
Texas A&M

Northern Division:

Wisconsin
Nebraska
Iowa
Minnesota
Michigan State
Purdue

Central Division:

Oklahoma State
Kansas State
TCU (Texas Christian)
Baylor
Texas Tech
Iowa State

Conference Structure:

Each team plays a round-robin schedule within its division, ensuring competitive matchups and traditional rivalries.
The top team from each division advances to a playoff to determine the conference champion.
Regular-season matchups emphasize regional and historical rivalries to enhance fan interest and tradition.
Cross-divisional scheduling rotates to provide variety and maintain competitive balance.
Benefits:

Strong balance of traditional football powerhouses and emerging programs.
Geographical coherence to maintain regional rivalries and reduce travel strain.
Maintains historic rivalries while introducing new, exciting matchups.
Competitive balance with each division having a mix of powerhouse teams and rising contenders.
Remember, the landscape of college football is dynamic, and realignment can change the structure of conferences. Additionally, the inclusion of Notre Dame is purely hypothetical, as they are currently an independent team.
