Default I\'m between 2 LAGs, top pair, terrible?

UTG is ultra-maniac ~98/80+/2+ and he's on a rush, button us LAG ~50/~23/~1.5, button likes to play back UTG a lot and that usually happens on the turn, they build monster pots and usually show down a lot of crap, this happens HU most of the time because they make everyone fold.

Fist thing I want to know is what hands should I be calling from the BB when is 3-bets preflop on that spot. KQo looks marginal at best I think but I want to know wich ones are a call.

On the fop I called because button is very likely to rise the turn, On the turn button rised as expected, I was terrified by the sixes and more so when UTG 3-bet it with me still in the pot, I just wanted a showdown and that's why I just called the river.

The main question is generally how do you play against these guys?
