Thing is, we just don't know how the universe as a whole would behave. We see galaxies spinning all the time. We even see clusters of galaxies spinning as a single object. But we also see all of these spinning both clockwise and anti-clockwise. We see local pockets of the universe spinning, but as far as we know, these local spins might cancel each other out, and at the universe level, it could be no spin. Until we measure it somehow, we can't draw a conclusion.

Imagine seeing a small whirlpool in a body of water, and trying to conclude from it that the Earth is spinning. It would be faulty reasoning. The whirlpool's spin isn't prof that Earth itself is spinning. It could be just a localized movement that gets canceled out at a greater scale.
