If competitive balance is the main issue, it would probably mean realignment every so often as the powers do shift.

I think preserving rivalries and geography should be a priority before balance.

Auburn fans are just trying too hard to make every team in the east their "historic rivals". UGA and UF? Okay, however, using the same criteria, Alabama would have just as much justification to go the east as Auburn. "But, but, Tennessee, Georgia and Vandy are our traditional rivals..."

I think Auburn fans are scared of Arkansas evening up the series on them.

And, after all, where would Auburn be without their historic rivalry with State (89 games and counting - #2 all-time for Auburn)?

I wouldn't say competitive balance is the main issue. I think it's an equal issue with the other two factors you listed.
