I liked your video a lot, but this is a reaction that will favor an E2 mechanism, and less so Sn2. CH3O (-) will be favored in this case due to it's extreme basicity. Since the alkyl halide is secondary, (or I should really say, since the carbon it is attached to is secondary), and the nucleophile is a powerful base, E2 will be dominant. Now, this is not to say that Sn2 will not occur, it absolutely will, just in lesser quantities. If the N.F was a WEAK base, Sn2 would predominate.
