With a tip of the cap to OL FU and Mountaineer for putting together the info in this thread for 2010 and previous years I added totals for the last 7 years.
I used Mountaineer's point system:
A first round game is worth 5 points.
A second round game is worth 10 points.
A quarterfinal game is worth 15 points.
A semifinal game is worth 20 points.
A championship game is worth 25 points.
Winning the championship game is worth an additional 25 points.
Therefore the totals that could be earned throughout the years are as follows:
1978 - 1980: Semis/Finals (4 Teams) - 70 Points
1981 - Quarters/Semis/Finals (8 Teams) - 85 Points
1982 - 1985: First/Quarters/Semis/Finals (12 Teams) - 95 Points
1986 - 2009: First/Quarters/Semis/Finals (16 Teams) - 95 Points
2010 - 2012: First/Second/Quarters/Semis/Finals (20 Teams) - 100 Points
2013 - present: First/Second/Quarters/Semis/Finals (24 Teams) - 100 Points
I included the teams no longer classified in the subdivision in the list but denoted them in italics and with an asterisk.
All that said here's how the 109 teams that have participated in the FCS/D1AA playoffs stack up:
