I laid this down without even thinking. I basically wasn't thinking the entire hand. How would you play it?

You need to think next time. And get some reads.
The flop call is extremely weak. Fold or raise. But you don't have any reads the flop is not good for a raise, so fold.

Flop is a fold or raise. The pot is small, SB bet into 2, you have no read, fold. If you think SB is full of it raise, if UTG calls 2 cold you are done UI.
