An even more provocative question would be does Entropy prevent a Big Crunch? When a successful theory of quantum gravity is worked out, it should explain why the Universe came out of the Big Bang singularity with a very large Entropy, and what happens to the Entropy of the Universe if it recollapses. Also, what happens to Entropy when mass falls into a black hole?
Final Entropy of the Universe as it approaches the Big Crunch singularity will be what? I think all we have are statistical concepts of what will happen, who knows for sure?

Entropy increases with the number of states accessible by a system. The Big Bang begins with a singularly, one simple state, and so through Botlzman's equation for entropy, S = k In W, entropy is zero at the beginning. Thereafter, as the universe expands from the initial spark, entropy rises. What is the problem?

Universe went from very low entropy at the moment of Big Bang to very huge entropy now. So what the problem?
Big Crunch and entropy, that's a different story.

The Big-Bang theory is descrited in the perfect condition.
It would be modified a little bits.
