AA/KK
AKs, QQ, JJ in that order depending on my reads on the players in. Short stack like that pushing doesn't mean much, but the UTG Raise does. I'd probably just call with an AA and see if I can coax the UTG to push over me and trap him with my Aces. I'd raise with KK and if Aces hit for him, so be it. Everything else depends on reads.

BB called with 88. Is that fine?

No, because I think UTG is surely gonna call if you flatcall this... If not, he's raising... either way, you're in bad shape... (small PP, OOP etc.)

If UTG light raises UTG, raise this and take the shortie 1on1. Else just fold and watch UTG take him down!

I dunno. I think UTG can reraise with a lot here if he wants to squeeze.

I actually prefer reraising/folding with 88 rather than flat calling.

Opinions?
