I thought it was interesting to see how much of an effect the additional 200 teams at champs made this year (brought us back to 2009-2010 percentages), so I did it for 2008-2015 using TBA rankings per division times 4 as the number of teams at champs, and Wikipedia for the number of teams each year:

2008: 22.65%, 84, 85, 85 and 86 teams/division = 340 teams at champs, 1501 teams total
2009: 20.99%, 86, 87, 87, and 88 teams/division = 348 teams at champs, 1677 teams total
2010: 18.99%, 86 teams/division = 344 teams at champs, 1811 teams total
2011: 16.96%, 88 teams/division = 351 teams at champs, 2075 teams total
2012: 17.07%, 100 teams/division = 400 teams at champs, 2343 teams total
2013: 15.84%, 100 teams/division = 400 teams at champs, 2524 teams total
2014: 14.70%, 100 teams/division = 400 teams at champs, 2720 teams total
2015: 20.00%, 75 teams/division = 600 teams at champs, 3000 teams total

To get back above 25%, I had to go back 8 years:
2007: 26.36%, 86 teams/division = 344 teams at champs, 1305 teams total
