Level 1
The NFL is a unified league. Colleges are independent operators with vary different agendas.
AND there's politics involved. A super conference would relegate the majority of teams to the dust bin of football history. Look at the teams in the bottom half of the standings. The Congressmen from those states will enact something to prevent the extinction of the sport in their states.

Level 2
SEC/Big10 control the dialog. They know that Oregon playing Rutgers makes no sense.
There is already talk of the SEC/Big10 splitting off from the NCAA. If/when they do, they will take the rest of the Power FBS with them. When they do, rational regional divisions will be resurrected.
