Predictions: check-in

In response to a call for predictions at the end of last year, I offered (in part) the following:

• Alito will be confirmed with at least 58 votes. . .
• Texas will beat USC. . .
• Florida will win the NCAA basketball title.

I'm feeling fairly prescient right now. See here (Alito - 58 votes), here (Texas beats USC) and here (Florida wins title).
