I'm folding in this case. I'd be open pushing with it though

Get it in, he should be pushing most pairs (if not all)

Near the bubble... does that mean 5 people left or one person left before you reach the cash? How representative are the chip stacks of the rest of the tournament?

Your hand has a better than average chance of being ahead right now, but it might be behind. I would probably just let this one go. If you call, you are increasing the pot odds that somebody else calls you, which means you might be facing multiple opponents all in and you have a decent chance of being behind already. 88 would be a great hand to push with in this position against a limper or an unraised pot, I just don't like it on a raised pot. I would fold (but I could understand pushing yourself if you have any sort of read on the opponent.)

I go with it. Given stats, his range is probably any pair along with lots of unpaired hands. We are winning a lot of chips by making this call, and I don't think we're quite close enough to the bubble to worry about squeaking into the money or ICM.

I call.
