NL50 AA with some action on the flop

What do you guys think of the shove? The range of SB seems wide here ... I don't think that he has a set, as he would call and check the turn to extract some more money. I've put him on TT+ or some other maniac play. What worries me is the smooth call from CO ... but what's the alternative?
Calling can't be right, as it commits me to the pot anyway once CO shoves behind.
Folding seams weak with so much money in the pot and a dry board...

Seems standard. You want, I think, to get CO out of there if you can. Once you get heads up, I think you are +EV against his range, although you will run into 22, 97, 72 with regularity.

I love you and your aces! I win so much money this way, its sick.
