First off, the SAT has gone through many revisions in the last 20 years so it's unclear this still applies. The SAT doesn't even have analogies any more, perhaps as a result of this research.
Secondly, that doesn't address differential prediction abilities. It addresses a concerning aspect of the verbal test, but is somewhat irrelevant when your goal is to predict college success. I'm not aware of differences on that metric.
