Oh, ok.  Here goes.
"Big Bang model" is a label one can use to describe a model of Universe which 
includes the hypothesis that Universe used to be tightly packed into a small 
space and has been expanding ever since.
Some people would probably disagree with the above paragraph.
I invite "better" definitions of the term "Big Bang model".
