Just off the top of my head there are many theories and this article points out evidence for and against each being correct. The competing theories from my recall:

Open Universe or Closed Universe - does the universe expand forever or eventually collapse due to gravity.

Expanding Universe or Static Universe and is there expanding space-time - Is the universe expanding or is it essentially fixed with unknown things that make it look like it is expanding. And is the fabric of space expanding.

.."expand forever or eventually collapse due to gravity."

....only to explode again sending all elements on their merry way to continue the cycle.

Just about every possible alternative has already been ruled out. The atheist/materialists were desperate to find an alternative but they have consistently been stymied by experimental results, or mathematical and metaphysical impossibilities that arise from other theories.
