Memphis -- Tyreke Evans' team-high 17 points sparked third-ranked Memphis to an easy 74-47 Conference USA win Saturday over outmanned Tulane.

Robert Dozier scored 16 with 12 rebounds and three blocked shots. Shawn Taggart added 14 with 10 rebounds, and reserve Roburt Sallie had 11 points for the Tigers (28-3, 16-0), whose 22nd straight victory completed their third consecutive season without a C-USA loss.

They have the nation's longest winning streak.

Kevin Sims had 14 points and five rebounds, but no other player scored in double figures for the Green Wave (13-16, 7-9), who had won three in a row.
