Default 98s on the Button

I recently came across this situation in a Party $22 SNG and I'd like some feedback on my play.


Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) converter

CO (t565)
Hero (t375)
SB (t597)
BB (t1915)
UTG (t820)
MP1 (t1165)
MP2 (t2563)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Hero calls [t375] , <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls t325.

Flop: (t400) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Turn: (t400) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

River: (t400) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Final Pot: t400

Is this an auto-push situation or should I have waited for a better hand? My line of thought was that the SB had been playing very timidly up to this point and probably wouldn't call the bet and that even if the BB called I would probably have two live cards and the straight and flush possibilites, though afterward I wasn't so sure. Any insight is appreciated.
