The SB is a TAG player, and reliable. Everyone else is no-read (fresh table). When I see the flop I immediately begin to fear I'm going to get taken by 99, TT, or 78. Seeing all of the players calling the raise reinforces this fear. With a limited amount of time to act I overbet the pot for some reason.
The call scares me a little bit, but figuring that he opened the pot, I decided he's on a draw (how I play a lot of these hands) or he has an overpair, or AT. I bet large thinking I was ahead and didn't want to see another card (he's still got a good 44).
I think I may have grossly misplayed this hand. At no time was I married to my set, and might have gotten rid of it.
