Default Home tourney with trash hand

Playing in a 5 man home tourney. Prize structure is 80% to 1st, 20% to 2nd. There's 4 of us. My image normally with these players is very tight and players usually respect my bets raises. I have been playing loose aggressive and stealing regularly this game. SB and BB are reasonably tight. I'm either big stack or close it it. SB has about 100 chips left and BB has about 50.

Blinds are 8/16. It's folded to me on the button with Q4o. I raise it to 50. SB calls, BB folds.

Flop is K T 4 rainbow. SB pushes for his last 43. Is this an easy call?

With those stack sizes, I would just push preflop.

Well, I meant "if he was going to play the hand at all". You are right, he should just fold preflop.

Why push PF into a T24 pot with T200+ chips?

Anyway given how the hand played it out is this a bad call?

Your effective stack is only the size of the largest guy left to act, namely the SB.
