You can falsify it's predictions, but there is no physical way to observe out side the universe nor even outside our local section of the universe.
And here is what I found on the conundrum from the physics department of Oregon U. http://abyss.uoregon.edu/~js/ast123/lectures/lec17.html
Physics of the early Universe is at the boundary of astronomy and philosophy since we do not currently have a complete theory that unifies all the fundamental forces of Nature at the moment of Creation. In addition, there is no possibility of linking observation or experimentation of early Universe physics to our theories (i.e. it's not possible to `build' another Universe). Our theories are rejected or accepted based on simplicity and aesthetic grounds, plus their power of prediction to later times, rather than an appeal to empirical results. This is a very difference way of doing science from previous centuries of research.
