It was another wild weekend of football across the Atlantic Coast Conference, and the new ACC Football Power Rankings will look much different from they did last week. The Duke football program picked up a much-needed victory in Death Valley over Clemson, and after several top squads fell shockingly, the Blue Devils are right back in position to bring the first ACC Championship to Durham since 1989. There's now just one undefeated team in the ACC, and Duke is one of five squads with just one loss. After picking up its first road victory over Clemson in 45 years, let's take a look at where Duke moved in the latest power rankings.
ACC Football Power Rankings: Week 11
1. Virginia (8-1, 5-0 ACC)

4. SMU (6-3, 4-1 ACC)
SMU makes the biggest jump of any team with how many top squads fell over the weekend, as the Mustangs took down Miami 26-20. This was a massive win after SMU lost to Wake Forest the week before.
