Quite often, it is very difficult to visualize the difference between sensor sizing simply by reviewing technical specs. The graphic here will help give you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the 20Da and 77D.

As you have seen, both of these cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but different resolution. You should expect to see the Canon 77D to deliver more detail with its extra 16MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop pics more aggressively. The older 20Da is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
