Default ICM says call, do i take every +$EV

blinds 150/300 5 handed buyin=$55
Hero is BB (A5o)

Hero 1420
SB/villain 825
button 1885
CO 3285
CO-1 2385

3 folds, SB pushes

He hasn't gotten out of hand, but this seems like a very desperate push. I am getting meteocre odds (call 525, to win 825). ICM says call if range is 22+,A2+,KJ+; break even is 55+,A9+, KJ+; and $EV is negative when range is 55+,A8+.

Is this an easy call at the $55's vs an oponent who hasn't gotten out of line, but seems very desperate due to stack sizes? Who prefers i push vs the two big stacks on my left w/ marginal to good hands? Is this one of those situations where you cannot wait for a better spot because of the two big stacks? I still have 3.5x BB plenty of FE vs CO-1.
