Well this isn't really true. From a pure physical point of view and if we don't iclude some of the weird new age quantum physics that allows from WEIRD STUFF TO HAPPEN for no apparent reason... the universe has a maximum level of entrophy.
It is when everywhere in the universe the temperature will be the same and when all mass will be equally distributed everywhere in the universe. That is when Entropy will be maximal.
But since the universe is expanding... who knows... the classical entropy definitions don't allow for an "inclosed system" to increae in volume as that would mean that some "External" force would have to act upon it...
