Isn't it pretty established that the universe is not infinite?

In any case, I don't think so. Even in an infinite universe there is the possibility of loops or repetitions. Also you can have an infinite but not comprehensive set of events even if those events are all unique.

It hasn't been established that the universe is not infinite, and in fact it seems to be the more common opinion that it probably is.

I didn't know that the Big Bang was compatible with an infinite universe, I learned something today.
