It means the oddsmakers believe that with the line at LSU -12.5, half of the nation's money will be put on LSU, and the other half on Arkansas.

Honestly think it will settle closer to 10. Didn't it open at 14?

Actually it means that they believe the majority of folks will bet the opposite of what they really feel will happen, as is always the case with a line. The age-old question is, which side of the fence do the oddsmakers fall on? Personally, I say they feel LSU will cover this and they're banking that most people feel they will not. Very difficult to believe they would feel that the majority of wagers would take LSU in this scenario.
