I think you should add the question Is the standard BB model correct? I refer to a very recent review article of Sandage (a fan of the standard-model, and even inclined to take inflation seriously), who examines the conflicting observations: Galaxy-counts favor a flat universe, magnitude/redshift relation for elliptic galaxies favor a non-zero deceleration-parameter, and optical size/redshift measurements favor a static universe. The last measurement constitutes `the most serious doubt to date about the standard-model'. For those who do not know Sandage: He and Peebles are the big names in global-scale matters.
